Virat Kohli (Photo Source: X/Twitter) The performance of Indian team’s best batsman Virat Kohli has been very poor so far in the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 being played at the moment. He has scored only five runs in three innings so far. In the match played against America, Virat Kohli returned to the pavilion on the first ball without opening his account. Former Australian captain Michael Clarke has put forth his opinion on his form. Let us tell you, in this important tournament, Virat Kohli is opening the innings for the Indian team along with Rohit Sharma. This opening pair has not yet given a good start to the Indian team. According to Michael Clarke, even though Virat Kohli could not leave his mark in the group stage, he can be seen playing a match-winning innings for India in the upcoming matches. Speaking on ESPNcricinfo’s Around the Wicket, Michael Clarke said, ‘He had a very good performance in the Indian Premier League. I am not worried that Kohli has scored three low scores so far. This means that Virat is one step closer to playing a big innings. This is the most important stage of the tournament where the best players are always seen performing well.’ Michael Clarke made a big statement about the Indian team’s playing XI Michael Clarke further said, ‘If they feel that this is their best playing 11, then they should not make any changes in it. The pitch on which the team was playing till now was very difficult for the opening batsmen. I don’t think three low scores will make any difference to Virat. If India feels that Kohli should open in their best 11, then it is the best thing. In IPL also, there was talk that Virat will be seen batting at number three in this Indian team.’ India won their first match in the group stage against Ireland by 8 wickets while they also defeated Pakistan. India also defeated USA while the team had to face defeat against Canada.

During a conversation on Star Sports, Varun Aaron said, ‘Whenever questions have been raised on Virat’s performance, he has responded in a tremendous way. If you look at the IPL, a lot of questions were raised on his strike rate. After that, Virat Kohli made a great comeback and silenced all the critics. I don’t think anyone will talk about his strike rate. Even now, Virat Kohli remains quiet in the first two or three matches. This definitely happens with batsmen in such wickets. But people should understand that Virat can start scoring runs very fast. Virat Kohli will be very disappointed with his performance in the last three matches but now the matches are to be played in the West Indies and on such wickets, he will be a different kind of batsman. Kohli’s record in West Indies has always been very good: Varun Aaron Varun Aaron further said, ‘You tell me in which country Virat’s average has been bad. Wherever he has gone, he has scored runs and played an important role in helping his team win many matches. The best thing about Virat is that he does not play the same game everywhere.
