DTVHINDIIND vs NZ: ‘Playing domestic cricket could have been beneficial’ Anil Kumble after Virat Kohli’s dismissal
Kohli was bowled after scoring just 1 run in the second innings of Pune Test. Virat Kohli and Anil Kumble (Image Credit- Twitter Anil Kumble on Virat Kohli Dismissal: Veteran batsman Virat Kohli’s return to Test cricket has not been memorable. Let us tell you that Kohli has been bowled out against Mitchell Santner after scoring only 1 run in 9 balls in the second innings of the second Test match against New Zealand at the MCA Stadium in Pune. Kohli, who has mastered the art of playing spin, could not understand the flighted ball and went across and played a shot, which missed. After this the ball hit the stump directly. On the other hand, after Kohli was bowled out in the match, former Indian player Anil Kumble has given a sharp reaction saying that he could have benefited from playing domestic cricket. Anil Kumble reacted on Kohli’s dismissal Let us tell you that after being bowled out in the match, Anil Kumble quoted Sports18 as saying – Perhaps in the situation of the match, only one or two home innings could have helped. Getting involved in the actual game is definitely more beneficial than just practicing. This gives you the upper hand in the match. If he felt that playing earlier would have benefited him and the team management agreed, then perhaps it would have happened. However, I don’t think we can see this as the sole reason for his struggles against spin. Kumble further said- When he comes to the crease, the pitches are often favorable to spin, which is an important reason. His challenges against spin at the start of his innings were not just due to mindset, but also due to the conditions aiding the spinners. This contributed to the dismissals of Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli, the left-arm spin of Glenn Phillips, who was brought in as a strategic move.
