India’s Marvel-ous Champions Trophy XI

India’s 15-man Champions Trophy squad has been announced, meaning Virat Kohli and co will make the trip to England to defend their title. For India and its cricket fans, the men on the field have always been handed special treatment. Being treated as superhuman figures is definitely not alien to the Indian cricket team.

Keeping in line with that, we decided to pick an Indian XI through the lens of Marvel and its superheroes. And it only feels like the right thing to do, considering Captain America: Civil War premiers on Star Movies and Star Movies HD on May 14th at 1:00 PM and 9:00 PM. So here goes…

Virat Kohli (Captain America)

Kohli is the captain of the side and if you’re going to shout ‘Yes captain!’ it’s only right that you shout it at him! If Kohli is Captain America then he needs a shield, right? Well, ask any bowler today and they’ll vouch for his bat being as impenetrable as Captain America’s shield. This match is a no-brainer.
