What happened to virat kohli?

[gslv]

Need to go to basics , once said in an interview that he only plays throw down before matches, not net practice, while it is ok if you're in form , it will be detrimental if you are not as you cannot cure the poking disease that players like gambhir also has.

[SLICKR392]

One good knock. He will eventually come through. And Anderson has usually got the better of him. In India, now here.

[CSK Fan]

He is too good to be down for long and too mentally tough as a batsman

[CSK Fan]

If Dravid is still around to help, he should coach Virat on how to leave balls in his weak zone. Every batsman has his weakness, you need to avoid that and make bowlers bowl to your strength

How long have you been watching the game? This guys isn't the first batsman to go through a lean patch.

RAT is awful. We need a new number 4. :agree: Replacing number 3 and 5 was relatively easy. Replicating number 4 on the other hand not so easy

[vvvslaxman]

I gave benefit of doubt first two tests. Now things are getting repetitive. Either he is not conscious about it or he is unable to conquer his instincts. He has to watch how others negotiate same type of delivery. He can do things like adopting a two eyed stance (one that Azharuddin resorted after series of failures), standing well outside the crease, standing well inside the crease.. Some kind of adjustment he has to make. He has wide range of shots. So it shouldn't be a problem trying new approach.

Does he poke outside off like Pokemon or gets out trying to drive and edging to slips? I thought most of his dismissals in this series came from playing the cover drive, not the dab shot. He left so well in south Africa, wonder why he doesn't do that now.

A bit of luck is also needed when he was in form catches would be dropped and lbws not given .it happens with every batsman caught behind is traditional dismissal i would be more worrid if he got bowled .He will get over it its his first england tour same with pujara these guys need time.

[TheWall]

BCCI should urgently arrange a series against Lungans for Kohli to get back into form....

Well you come from land full of hacks so no wonder everyone looks like a hack to you.

I think failure of kohli again shows how poorly mismanaged our cricket system is. I have seen him struggling against Bhuvi in some domestic matches (i think in a Ranji trophy match and then in some challenger trophy matches). In Ipl we all saw him how he was struggling against sandeep sharma. Pace has never been a problem to him, its the swing ,especially when it swings both the ways (whether conventional or Reverse), he looked clueless. He is not picking which one is coming in and which one goes away. I also blame the team management, the selectors and the whole think tank for this. They sent pujara and Rahane in A tours to south Africa, to newzealand but didn't bother to send Kohli to any of these A tours.As if he is the next Bradman. Rather he was allowed to play some meaning less odis to boost his average. Look how Rahane is playing, full of confidence and definitely those A tours have really helped him to develop. Kohli definitely has class but our management who doesn't know difference between test and odis spoiling a promising career.

What happened to virat kohli?

Nothing happened. He was always a talented flat track wonder. Once the team comes back home after another series loss and starts playing against SL & WI he will start scoring runs again.
