Laaloo Posted September 17, 2017 Share Posted September 17, 2017 (edited) What? He didn't really get out on a unplayable ball. Maybe instead of taking risk, he should do what dhoni does and take a single and get off to the other end as soon as possible, then ride off others knocks like jadhavs and pandya and bhuvi and then score a few freebies from a trundler like Faulkner.

Trichromatic Posted September 17, 2017 Author Share Posted September 17, 2017 3 hours ago, express bowling said: Kohli has still not rectified his technique against outswing. He is not making any adjustments for the outswinging ball .... still going for the expansive drives to the away going ball. Needs to work on this issue ASAP. He needs to leave more outswinging deliveries, especially at the beginning of the innings. Don't play away from his body .... play only when the ball is under his eye. His technique is actually better. It's just that he has habbit of playing all deliveries. Need to leave more deliveries outside off. This is something which can be rectified by lot of practice and strong determination before the game. Link to comment

Propensity to play away from his body to outside-off-stump balls is a part of batting technique too. Link to comment

SK_IH Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 @Trichromatic today's innings worth it or was the pitch flat because Virat scored runs ? King Tendulkar, express bowling and Laaloo 1 2 Link to comment
Gollum Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Kohli batted really well today, credit where due. Laaloo, Mosher, karanrudra93 and 1 other 4 Link to comment
express bowling Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 (edited) 2 paced pitch .... commentators pointing this out repeatedly Some balls were hitting the cracks and flying through at pace with bounce .... many others were coming slowly off the deck Some movement in the first ten overs Low scoring match .... batting looked difficult Opposition was Australia Kohli .... 92 off only 107 balls .... highest scorer of the match Looked resolute today ... left many off-stump balls initially, got set and then tried to hit....., that is the right approach Man of the match Edited September 21, 2017 by express bowling Laaloo, SK_IH and Mosher 3 Link to comment

Definitely worth it. This inning along with his inning in World T20 2016 against Pak are now 2 of his LOI innings in this list. It was not easy to bat here and he just kept his calm. It's not always that we see Kohli cutting down strokes and playing waiting game. Generally if he stays on pitch, he remains fluent for entire duration of his stay. These are good signs and indicate that he will do well in upcoming away series. Not that he wasn't doing well already. Link to comment

His 88 in a low scoring game in SA in 2010 was far more challenging than these 2 innings. Far better bowling attack and help for fast bowlers. Link to comment

Nonbeliever Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 Even rahane was playing freely. U call it a tough track. Pitch was not easy once the ball got old. Aussie attack with agar,Richardson, stoinis people calling it a great attack. Link to comment
putrevus Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 What is most difficult pitch on which Sachin scored runs???They were eulogising his knocks against Zimbabwe. What about his Desert storm. Kohli has long way to go but the stupid article on cricinfo about best chaser shows how much pass people are willing to give Sachin.Kohli is miles ahead of Sachin as chaser. velu 1 Link to comment
