New Delhi. Virat Kohli is struggling for runs this time in the T20 World Cup (T20 World Cup 2024). Virat, who gave India many memorable victories with his batting in the T20 World Cup, has been able to score only 5 runs in 3 innings so far in the current tournament. Virat was also out on 0 in the match against America on Wednesday. Meanwhile, the batting coach has said about Virat Kohli that his poor form is not a matter of concern.
Batting coach Vikram Rathod said, “I like it when I am asked questions about Virat Kohli. It does not matter whether he is doing well or not. There is no problem. Kohli has been batting brilliantly since IPL. Yes, he has been out in a few matches but that does not change things. He is still batting well. He is hungry for runs. He wants to do well. I will expect great batting from him in the coming times.”
Virat bats at number three in international cricket but he is opening the innings in the T20 World Cup. Virat, who scored 1 against Ireland and 4 against arch-rival Pakistan, got out at 0 against America and two unwanted records got added to his name. This is the first time in the T20 World Cup that Virat has been out at 0 and after this innings, his T20I batting average has come below 50.
