There have been at times, where Virat has looked mentally drained and this has reflected in his performance. If he misses out on a hundred on Sunday, his drought will continue in excess of 1000 days for a hundred. His last ton came before the Covid-19 pandemic and is yet to raise the bat for a significant ton.

Does Virat need timeout from cricket?-
- In November 2021, Virat relinquished his role as the captain of the Indian T20 side and was thought to have eased the pressure on him.
- However, constant cricket along with Indian Premier League has affected him both physically and mentally.
- He was rested for the South Africa home series and didn’t have the best IPL campaigns by his standards.
- There have been now calls for Virat to be rested from the Indian side for a long time rather than a short time.
When did Virat last score 100?-
Kohli’s last century at the international stage came on 23 November 2019, in the pre-pandemic era. On the second Day of the Kolkata Test match, he scored 136 rums to register his last hundred, which was also his 70th at the international stage.
As things stand, he is third in the list of most international hundreds and one shy of second placed Ricky Ponting. While Kohli trails great Sachin Tendulkar by 30 centuries, and was once on path to break the record with his scoring purple patch. But since the 2020 Covid-19 pandemic, Virat has endured a tough run of form
The ODI series decider match at Manchester on Sunday will provide Kohli a chance to get a big knock under his belt. After the end of England tour, Kohli will not be a part of India’s white-ball tour of the West Indies, with his name missing from the three-match ODI series squad and five-match T20I series squad in the Caribbean.
