TIL Desk Sports/ Despite his couple of good knocks in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022, concerns are growing about the former Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli’s inability to play fluently and score consistently for his team in this ongoing season.
The 33-year old batter has scored just 216 runs in 12 matches at an average of 19.64 and strike rate of 111.34. It has also seen him bag three ducks, a rare unthinkable phenomenon for someone of Kohli’s stature.
Kohli suffered yet another failure in RCB’s last game against Sunrisers Hyderabad on Sunday as he was once again dismissed for a duck. Seeing his inability to play fluently, former India batter Wasim Jaffer has suggested to Kohli to take a break after the conclusion of IPL 2022.
“The way he has got out in the last couple of matches, it seems he is overcooked by playing too much cricket. The last six months have been very intense for him as he resigned from the Test and T20 captaincy and was asked to leave ODI captaincy. After going through all these things, he is playing in IPL and hasn’t been able to score much for RCB, which certainly affects one’s mindset. So, I would suggest that Kohli take a four to six weeks break after the conclusion of IPL 2022 and come back as a mentally fresh player,” Jaffer told.
