At the same time, even in the ongoing Test series against Bangladesh, Virat’s bat appeared silent. In the first Test match played against Bangladesh at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Virat’s bat scored only 6 runs in the first innings and only 17 runs in the second innings. Although, he was set in the second innings, but was out LBW due to a wrong shot. On the other hand, now a big statement from former Indian cricketer Hanuma Vihari has come out regarding Virat’s form. Vihari feels that Virat is going to make a spectacular comeback in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy to be held in Australia. Hanuma Vihari gave a big statement regarding Virat Kohli Let us tell you that in a recent interview given to Times Now, Hanuma Vihari said about Virat’s form – I will not call it important, Virat Kohli just needs to be in a good mindset. I know he has not played Test cricket for some time. Vihari further said- Due to his personal commitments he could not play the entire England Test series. But coming back to Test after some time, it takes time to get your rhythm back and get that mental space and get that routine back. India should not be worried about Virat’s form, because we know that when the real test comes, he will survive. From this statement given by Hanuma Vihari, you can guess that Virat’s form is not a matter of concern. When the time comes, runs will start coming easily from Virat’s bat. Well, now it will be interesting to see how Kohli is going to perform in the second test match against Bangladesh in Kanpur?
‘This is about our mindset…’ Henriques Klaasen on slow batting in the middle overs against Bangladesh in T20 World Cup
South Africa has won against Bangladesh by 4 runs. Heinrich Klaasen (Image Credit- Twitter X) When the South African cricket team, known for its aggressive batting in T20 cricket, scored 113 runs for the loss of 6 wickets in 20 overs against Bangladesh in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024, everyone was surprised to see their score. In this match played at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York, South Africa won the toss and decided to bat first, which did not prove to be good for them. Fans once again got to see a low scoring match between the two teams here. Whereas South Africa, which scores 200 runs in T20 cricket in a jiffy, was seen struggling to score runs in this match. South Africa lost the wickets of four of its top order batsmen in the powerplay itself. After this, the stormy hard hitter Heinrich Klaasen, who came to bat, had to bat very patiently. In the match, he played an innings of 46 runs in 44 balls. So now T20 cricket is being played like ODI cricket, Klaasen has given a big statement on his innings. Heinrich Klaasen made a big statement Let us tell you that regarding South Africa’s slow batting in the middle overs against Bangladesh, Heinrich Klaasen said – I think David Miller showed us in the last match how to bat on this wicket. This is just the way we bat in ODI cricket. Klaasen further said- Our mindset in the middle order against Bangladesh was nowhere near T20 cricket. When you go to the field, you want to find a way to score one run per ball. You know that you are just one or two hits away from going above the run-ball strike rate.
