There have been a plethora of criticisms regarding the batting form of the former Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) skipper, Virat Kohli and it has been a cause of concern for the cricketer himself as well. RCB head coach Sanjay Bangar talked about the right-handed batters’ form and he reckons that Kohli will be back amongst the runs soon.

Virat Kohli is witnessing a rough patch in the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 so far with the bat and has so far registered two consecutive golden ducks which have never happened before. In this year’s IPL, Virat Kohli has scored just 119 runs from 8 matches with an average of 17 which is his lowest since 2008. In the first year of the IPL, Kohli had averaged just 15 after playing 13 games in the tournament.

As per the quotes in PTI, Sanjay Bangar said, “He (Kohli) is somebody who has consistently performed for RCB. Players go through these kinds of rough patches. He started the season really well, nearly hitting the winning runs in Pune, but then you have an odd run-out or the first edge that finds his bat lands in the fielder’s hands.”

The RCB head coach in the batter’s defense said that he is executing all the controllable right.

Sanjay Bangar said, “He is certainly doing everything that is in his control. He is doing his fitness and skills and taking good breaks and not letting the pressure get to him. He has been taking breaks at regular intervals and will continue to do so going forward.”
