Virat Kohli has been witnessing a rough patch in his career currently as he is struggling to score runs. It has been a wait for a couple of years for the spectators to see him scoring a hundred in international cricket. His slump in the form is also reflected in the IPL 2022 and Kohli has managed to score just 128 runs from nine games at 16 and a strike rate of 119.63.

During a chat on the Home of Heroes show on Sports18, Yuvraj Singh said, “Virat needs to become a free-flowing personality again. If he can change himself and be like how he was earlier that will reflect in his game. He has proved himself to be the best of this era and believes in a strong work ethic and that has brought the best out of him over the years.”

He further added, “Obviously, he is also not happy, and people aren’t too, because we have seen him setting bigger benchmarks, scoring hundreds after hundreds. But this happens to the best players.”

Virat Kohli was expected to excel without the burden of captaincy on his shoulders. However, he has not been able to be at his best but RCB skipper, Faf Du Plessis has backed him to make a strong return.
