Shami scored more runs than Kohli this test series.

[SecondSlip]

Kohli’s runs: 2+19+3+14=38 

Shami’s runs: 21+2+16+5=44

Has the balls to compare himself with Smith,Williamson

To me he too seems an age fudging fraud, probably has got too old where his reflexes have left him and is too much to handle in these conditions

It happens to age fudgers ,their slide looks alarming,besides this he his king of team politics which plays in his mind while he is at the crease

[rkt.india]

Hey, He is batting well.

Batting slump is fairly common. Need a proper coach to manage it and not a drunk idiot from the village.

He has been playing non stop after the WC out of fear of losing his stranglehold on the captaincy. That is catching up to him. Like Kapil Dev said, he should skip the IPL if he is feeling burnout. RCB fans should be spared the torture of watching this tyrant lead them to the bottom of the table again.

He has certainly skipped some T20s and ODIs in the last one year.

When you play too much politics your mind gets cluttered. He should let go off the captaincy and play freely again and just worry about batting and fitness. That's the only way he will have a legacy. If he falters now his legacy will be tarnished and as a captain too he is unlikely to win any cups

Yes, he did. But after the WC ended, he reversed his decision to skip the WI series and has been playing non stop ever since. There was talk of making Rohit the LOI captain and Wrogn got scared that if he sits out and Rohit does a good job, his captaincy will be under threat.

Tests.... irrelevant..err

Yeah no, this will be his legacy much like his favorite Dhongi although he has no trophies to show for it

Atleast both of them didn't get whitewashed at home like Ailiaaaaa against RSA.

"Shastri scored more drinks than Kohli scored runs in this test series" would be a more apt title.

[ShoonyaSifar]

Kohli has no legacy as a captain, such pathetic performances in critical Test series will put a question mark on his legacy as a batsman as well. One long awaited away series vs a tough opponent, but he prioritised LOIs, esp. T20s. No surprise he melted away completely in the test series

[Laaloo]

[Sachinism]

A stat as meaningful as "Jamieson and Boult averaged more than Williamson this series"

[SRT100]

Next summer in Australia I can see two Australian bowlers who will score more runs than Kohli.

 

His decline is well underway and its now hurtling along.

Kuch toh sharam karo Kohli
