Kohli recent resurgence - second wind or false dawn?

[Strangering]

Dead cat bounce. 

 

I can't watch bi-laterals anymore. They're meaningless. India wins most of them and then drops doo-doo at tournaments. Its annoying and unwatchable. All the tailunt with their un-ending monies couldn't even show up at the Asia cup.

Was dropped multiple times in 3rd one too.

So  what , how has he done after that innings. His fluency is coming back and with his consistency he will be the backbone of Indian Odi batting again in the World Cup.

Runs against Sri Lanka don't count. Runs against Bangladesh count.

 

Bangladesh definitely have a better bowling and fielding side than SL. Their batters normally **** their pants and throw games.

Hope this happens, nothing like a kohli in form. Thats absolute dominance.

[Texan]

I hope it is the former. There was no way the selectors or TM were going to drop him anyway even before this recent form. So, having an in-form Kohli will be good for the team.

Don't fall for these soft runs against a third class bowling attack .

When the pressure will mount in a big match against a quality attack ,we know he'll fail big time

Correct

 

This is fraudulent scores by Kohli.

 

He will go missing again when it matter most.

 

I think a much sooner test will come actually ironically in the Test series vs Australia. We will get a good reflection of where he is at along with Fatman and KL. There will be pressure and quality bowling for Australia.

 

If all three choke in the Test series, its suffice to say they will choke in the WC as well.

Bro even in that game there were 2 dropped chances.

He is unable to pick the length once again. He goes forward to balls that should be played on the backfoot and vice versa. Shakib did him in  in BD in same style.

He is so done at this level. For team like India, he is not the best 5th batsman in this country ATM.

He needs to shove his ego at the door and approach Sunny and talk to him.Sunny was the best at dealing with spin. His Banglore 96 is still a master class on how t play spin bowling. It is not temperment issue with him.

 

He is standing outside the crease to negate swing but going back to spin.He should be doing opposite.

He has to play the domestic cricket.  Playing spinners in the nets is not enough.

Too proud and arrogant to do this.

 

Kohli's failure is predictable.

 

He makes fraudulent scores against minnows. Yet to score a century for years against a decent side.

[Suhaan]

He will lay huge eggs with all his eggsperience for mega event in Oct this year,

Should have gracefully retired,by oct he'll be much worse

Unfit,him and kela will make us fight fir the wooden spoon

Would like to see a century vs NZ before saying he is back

First he has to demonstrate that he can handle spin on a turning wicket.  That was one fugly dismissal. Everyone goes "What a delivery". Only Sunny pointed out he was going back to the ball that he should have gone forward. Did the same against Shakib, Taijul

Virat is having an orgasm by looking at performance of Ronaldo in friendly match. I don't even watch football and he looked finished at the World Cup. 

I guess performing against 3rd rate site like Lanka has given new wings to Kohli. He thinks himself and Ronaldo aren't washed up as of yet.

Watch him in BGT where he might not even make single 50.

If he makes a 40 ill be surprised

Second wind = breaking wind

 

Kohli resembles an old fart whose lingering aroma refuses to go away no matter how many windows are opened
