IPL 2022: What is going wrong with Virat Kohli?
- Kohli has shown impatience and tried to dominate the bowlers from the start, giving away wickets.
- On quite a few occasions, he has been dismissed even though he seemed set for a long haul.
- In some cases, he has thrown away wickets trying to go for a big hit.
- He has even been trapped leg before while trying to go for a sweep.
- He has lost his cool when he was controversially given out against Mumbai Indians.
Kevin Pietersen called it a mental block that is affecting him as he has looked short of confidence at times. He has advised his good friend Kohli to take a break.
“He is the biggest star in the world. Virat needs to switch off for six months – completely from social media and cricket. He has had a lot to deal with. He had a wedding, had a baby, media pressure, a lot. Once he come back refreshed, he will be a difficult batsman to handle,” Pietersen said after the match.
