“People think Kohli is God…. He is a human being….”- Navjot Singh Sidhu came out in support of Virat
Royal Challengers Bangalore’s veteran batsman Virat Kohli played a key role in his team’s recent win against Gujarat Titans in Ahmedabad. Chasing the target of 201 runs, it was Kohli and Will Jacks who batted brilliantly and they helped RCB register their third win of the season. They achieved this target with 9 wickets and 24 balls remaining. Kohli remained unbeaten on 70 runs in 44 balls and crossed the 500-run mark this season. With this he is on top in the list of Orange Cap. Despite his good batting form, Virat Kohli This season he has faced a lot of criticism regarding his strike rate. After the win against Titans, Kohli said that it is easy to comment from outside but competing on the field is a different story. Navjot Singh Sidhu came to the rescue of Virat Kohli Meanwhile, former Indian cricketer Navjot Singh Sidhu has now come out in Kohli’s defence. Sidhu said on Star Sports that, “People think Kohli is God. He is a human being, so will play like a human being. Instead of criticizing, why don’t we focus on the fact that that player has 80 centuries. This is his strength and weakness, he doesn’t have any.” And if you look carefully, today he played on the backfoot and hit good shots against the spinners. Tell me how many people can do this? Hitting a left-arm spinner against spin… So, Kohli has a presence which he cherishes even on his wicket. What else should he do?” Mohammad Kaif, who was part of the same discussion, also came to Kohli’s defense and said that it is clear that he will play with a low strike rate in the middle overs. Kaif said, “These days I only hear about strike-rate. People are behind Kohli. Boss, between 7 and 15 overs, it is natural to be slow. The economy-rate of a spinner is lower than that of a fast bowler. Why? Because they bowl in the middle overs.”

Virat Kohli or Yashasvi Jaiswal – Who will open with Rohit Sharma in the World Cup 2024? – Got the answer
Irfan Pathan has given his statement on the question of who should be the opening batsman for India in Star Sports Press Room Show, Ticket to World Cup. Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli (Image Credit- Twitter These days, cricket experts are leaving IPL aside and focusing on T-20 World Cup. This tournament is very important from the point of view of the Indian team. Team India has not been announced yet for the mega tournament. In such a situation, everyone’s eyes are on which players will be selected for the World Cup. Meanwhile, Irfan Pathan had selected his 15-member team for the T20 World Cup a few days ago. Meanwhile, there are some reports whether Virat Kohli will open with Rohit Sharma or Yashasvi Jaiswal? Irfan Pathan has given his opinion on this. Virat Kohli or Yashasvi Jaiswal – who will open with Rohit Sharma in the World Cup? Commentator and cricket expert Irfan Pathan, the official TV broadcaster of IPL, on the question of who should be the opening batsman for India in the Star Sports Press Room show, Ticket to the World Cup, said, “Look, as far as I am concerned, right And because of the left-handed combination, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma should be the opening batsmen. Don’t forget that Yashasvi Jaiswal has an international strike rate of 160 and if you need him, he has the hitting ability you need. If Virat Kohli opens, then there is a need to make major changes and policies in the playing 11. If this happens, then you can see Shivam Dubey playing, if he is in the team. You can also see people like Rinku Singh in the playing 11. But if Virat bats at number three then this cannot happen. So this is a big challenge. Secondly, if Yashasvi Jaiswal is playing, then you can get an advantage from him that you can play 5 bowlers and use him as the sixth bowler. Because he has been seen bowling in the nets these days, which can be useful to you in future. Otherwise, if you look at the batting order, nobody bowls. If you look at the top 6, none of the batsmen bowl and this is the biggest challenge we face in Indian cricket. And we need to consider this also. So for me, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Rohit Sharma should open and then Virat should bat at number three.”

When you came up with a height rule and made a rule, did you see that he (Kohli) was standing on his toes 6 inches higher. Did you give him an allowance of 7 inches while measuring his height? This is the first thing. Navjot Singh Sidhu cornered the bowlers regarding beamer (full toss ball higher than waist) ‘The biggest thing. You legalized beamer. In my times, when the ball accidentally left the bowler’s hand and came above the base line and the batsman was stunned, the bowler raised both his hands and apologized. But tomorrow if someone jumps and hits him (the bowler) on the head, he will not apologise. Are you legalizing beamer? How did this ball dip two feet? ‘And the third thing. Point of impact. When the ball hits the bat, it is one-and-a-half feet above the baseline and he (Kohli) is six inches outside the crease. What do you mean that the ball went forward one foot and dipped two feet? When in doubt, the batter should get the benefit. “Whether I have been a cricketer or an MP. I’ve seen laws change for the better. Rules and regulations are not made just for change, but for…
