Reece Topley gave a big statement regarding Virat Kohli Let us tell you that today, before the match against Mumbai Indians at Wankhede Stadium on 11th April, Reece Topley was quoted as saying by India Today – You can see the batting and say that they are foreign batsmen who are not scoring runs. At present, there is a lot of load on Virat (Kohli) in the run-scoring department. But I don’t think you need to be an expert to watch someone’s performance. They have not been able to perform well, but that is one aspect of the game and we have only played 5 matches. Topley further said – The exciting thing is that it is still the initial phase of the tournament, there is still a lot to play for in the tournament. We have plenty of time to show how well we can play. Our target at the beginning of the season was to qualify for the playoffs. We still have a chance to do this, for which we are working hard.
