Former Indian and RCB skipper Virat Kohli, who had been synonymous with records, is currently going through a lean patch with the bat as he has managed to score just 119 runs in eight matches.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He has reached the lowest point of his career as he recorded his second consecutive golden duck in his IPL career on Saturday against Sunrisers Hyderabad. There was a time when the century was normal for Kohli but now he has registered two consecutive golden ducks, nothing can be worst than this for a top-class batter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Kohli, who had scored a century against Bangladesh in November 2019, become the talk of the town in the last 12 months and almost everyday cricket experts are commenting on his form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Earlier his form was a prime concern for team India during T20 World Cup 2021 and bi-lateral series but now it has become a key concern for his IPL franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore RCB after his back to back ducks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Days after former Team India head coach Ravi Shastri’s overcooked remark on Virat Kohli, now, Delhi Capitals’ assistant coach Shane Watson has also said that there is something different about the India batter but he backed Kohli to return to form soon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Analysing his present form, Watson said Kohli’s decision with India captaincy sucked out all the energy out of him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Speaking to The Grade Cricketer, Watson recalled the match against RCB earlier last week, where he felt that Kohli was a bit off than usual. He, however, hailed him as superhuman for being actively involved in the sport, and with the same level of intensity, and not missing a single game of cricket.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He has played against Virat and with him for a couple of years at RCB but his energy was a little bit different, a little bit off in the last game, where Delhi Capitals played against RCB, Watson said adding that he has already seen him before.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
