However, Kohli has not featured in the match as he arrived in New York on Friday five days after his other team members.
“We will bat. Not for any particular reason, conditions here look a bit challenging. Virat has just arrived yesterday, he’s going to miss out, the rest are all available and we’ll see how to use them. We arrived quite early, so the body clock has adjusted, we just have to see how well we can adjust to these conditions,” India captain Rohit Sharma said after winning the toss.
Kohli has scored 741 runs in 15 IPL games and he will still get three quality net sessions before the first game against Ireland on June 5.
