Former India player Aakash Chopra has shown concern about Virat Kohli’s mode of dismissal in the third ODI against England as well. Similar to the second match, Kohli was once again caught behind off Adil Rashid’s bowling as well. However, Kohli scored 52 runs off 55 balls as India set England a 357-run target in the final ODI in Ahmedabad on Wednesday, February 12 as well.

In a video shared on his YouTube channel ‘Aakash Chopra,’ he said, “He (Kohli) scored a half-century. He played well. He was slightly lucky at the start as he was getting beaten or the edges were falling short when he was chasing balls outside the off-stump. Then he played a few good shots. Jos Buttler also applied his brain. He brought (Joe) Root in front of Kohli, and Kohli thrashed him. However, he once again fell prey to Adil Rashid. Adil Rashid has dismissed him many times, and even when he got out, he was caught behind. This is also a problem. He takes his front foot out very straight and remains very far from the ball.”

Meanwhile, Aakash Chopra also opined on whether Virat Kohli’s fifty in the third ODI against England can be considered a return to form as well.

“With Virat Kohli scoring a fifty, the first thing that comes to mind is whether he is back in form. Have all things become fine? Has the world started looking beautiful because of Virat Kohli’s return to form? Rohit Sharma scored a century and we praised him wholeheartedly, but we also said that you don’t come in form from out of form with one knock. You start feeling you are in form when you play five to seven good knocks, with one or two failures in between. If you play just one good knock, the confidence goes up, but it comes down again when you get out in two innings. It flickers a lot. Is he back in form? It would be slightly wrong to say that so soon,” Aakash Chopra concluded.
