The Kohli constant in India's test team

[bsriharsha]

Kohli doesn't watch the ball out of the hand. It was a soft freakish dismissal this time around but the problem with him is that he doesn't pick spin....

 

And his problems with pace are well documented. 

 

Should stick to the smaller formats.

[SRT100]

Kohli struggles to pick spin and pace bowling as he has gotten older.

 

Otherwise he is competent.

Ravi shastri suggested him taking part in Ranji trophy with a view that he can address his spin issues. Oh well.. He doesn't care.

 

 

 

 

On the contrary, he knows that he will be exposed. If even domestic unheralded spinners start getting him bowled, his brand will nosedive.

This looks worse though. Strangled down by a 22 year old rookie lol. He is a frontfoot plonker. Doesn't have this back and across game.

According to a cricket database site, Kohli's last Ranji Trophy game was way back in 2012, a full 10 years ago. No wonder his skills in playing even average quality spinners in slightly turning conditions are worst among our batters.

Worst things are trending

Add to that his slips catching.  What is the obsession of keeping Kohli in the slips? What does a man have to do to be taken out of slips?

Lol got owned by bhoobi kumar prime. Averaged 28.5 in that game. 

 

Maybe the real reason guys is that he just doesn't want to get exposed by no name, unknown and  younger talents in ranji which will affect his market value.
