KL Rahul backs Virat Kohli (PC: Twitter)
Former Indian skipper Virat Kohli has been horribly out of form this year. Though Kohli hasn’t scored a century in almost three years, he was making it up with the fifties. However, in 2022 he has scored only 476 runs across all formats in 16 games at an average of 25.05.
The 33-year-old’s elaborated lean patch can put him in trouble. A lot of former cricketers and analysts are already questioning the long rope being given to the batting maestro. Veterans like Dinesh Kaneria have even labeled Kohli as a liability for the Indian team.
Despite the criticism, the Indian management continues to back their star player. Kohli forms a part of India’s 15-member squad for the Asia Cup, scheduled in the United Arab Emirates. However, it is believed that the T20 event will be the last chance for Kohli to prove himself in the purest format of the game.
