Global.Baba Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 Mercurial talent who plays a couple of flashy attractive strokes. Looked like a million bucks when he started and can play some attractive shots but prone to brain farts and idiotic shots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vvvslaxman Posted March 25, 2019 Share Posted March 25, 2019 He has too many weaknesses to exploit. For starters incoming ball and outgoing ball lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cummins has got him out in the same way lots of times, even in England if not for a few dropped catches his stats could've been much worse. Yes he has the mental resolve to get runs despite this weakness, but let's not kid ourselves - Kohli is not yet a great player of swing like Dravid or SRT. He plays pace, bounce better than lateral swing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At this point in time yes, likely over the course of his career as well. Sure but then you must also remember his England numbers in 2014, vs Aus in 2017 or last year? In 2 of those he was worse than a tailender, in fact if Kohli wasn't injured for Dharamshala we might as well have lost the series at home! velu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
