Why is Virat Kohli not able to score big in the ODI series against Sri Lanka? Former Pakistani player made a big revelation

Virat Kohli scored 24 runs in the first ODI while he scored 14 runs in the second match. Virat Kohli and Basit Ali (Pic Source-X) Virat Kohli, the best batsman of the Indian team, is currently participating in the 3-match ODI series against Sri Lanka. So far, two matches have been played in this ODI series and Virat Kohli’s performance has been very poor in both. Virat Kohli scored 24 runs in the first ODI while he scored 14 runs in the second match. In both these matches, Virat Kohli was seen having a lot of trouble against the spinners. It has been seen very rarely that Virat Kohli has had trouble against the spinners but in this series, the experienced batsman has failed to perform well. The most surprising thing about Virat Kohli was that he was LBW in both these matches. Recently, former Pakistani cricketer Basit Ali has put forth his opinion on Virat Kohli’s poor form. Basit Ali said on his official YouTube channel, ‘Virat Kohli, who is the world’s number 1 batsman, has been LBW twice. If this had happened to Shreyas Iyer or Shivam Dubey, it would have been understandable, but Virat Kohli is Virat Kohli. This means that he is not practicing.’ Former Pakistani player made a big statement about India’s batting lineup Basit Ali further said, ‘It does not seem at all that this is the same batting lineup that ruled the world. I think Shreyas Iyer and KL Rahul have not even practiced yet. These people have come without practice. I don’t understand at all what Shreyas Iyer will do after such a performance. I think now the time has come that Rishabh Pant, Riyan Parag and Rinku Singh should come back to the Indian team. India’s ODI domestic tournament will be very important for Gautam Gambhir as the head coach can take some players from there as well. If India selects players on the basis of reputation then the result of Champions Trophy 2025 will be very bad for them. 5 Australian players who scored half-century in their debut IPL match IPL 2024: These 11 foreign players took crores of rupees but flopped IPL 2024: 5 players who hit the most sixes in the 19th and 20th overs of IPL 5 fastest bowlers in IPL history Who are the head coaches of all 10 teams in IPL 2024?

IND vs SL 3rd ODI: These 4 Indian players can be the reason for defeat in the third ODI

In this article, we will talk about those 4 Indian players who can be the reason for Team India’s defeat in the third ODI match (IND vs SL 3rd ODI). IND vs SL (Photo Source: Getty Images) IND vs SL 3rd ODI: The third and final ODI match between India and Sri Lanka will be played on August 7. While the first ODI match between the two teams ended in a draw, the Indian team had to face defeat in the second ODI. Sri Lanka won by 32 runs while defending 241 runs. The Indian team needed 241 runs to win this match. But the Indian team’s innings ended at 208 runs. In this article, we will talk about those 4 Indian players who can be the reason for Team India’s defeat in the third ODI match. Virat Kohli Virat Kohli (Photo Source: Getty Images) Like the first ODI match, in the second match too Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill gave a good start to the Indian team. Both of them together added 97 runs. From here the target was very close. At that time Virat Kohli came to bat. He wanted to take the innings forward. But in this match too he returned cheaply. Virat Kohli had scored just 14 runs. After Virat was out, the Indian team’s score was 116 runs for 3 wickets. Earlier in the first ODI too, he had returned cheaply, he had scored only 24 runs. A batsman like Virat Kohli getting out cheaply raises some questions. Kohli is called a chase master but his bat has remained silent in both the matches. If such a performance comes from his side in the third ODI (IND vs SL 3rd ODI) too, then the situation can get worse for India. Shreyas Iyer Shreyas Iyer (Image Credit- Twitter X) After being out of the team for almost 10 months, Shreyas Iyer got a chance to return to the Indian team. But he has been a super flop in the first two matches. While chasing the runs in the first match of the series, he returned after scoring 23 runs, while in the second match he could score only 7 runs. Being an important part of the team’s middle order, this kind of form of Iyer can become a problem for the team. KL Rahul KL Rahul (Image Credit- Twitter X) KL Rahul played an important innings in the first match. He made an important partnership with Akshar Patel and on the basis of this partnership he brought the Indian team very close to victory. However, that match was drawn. But in the second ODI match, he returned to the pavilion on zero. KL Rahul is also an important part of the team’s middle order. The team has a lot of expectations from him and being a big match player, his poor performance is a big blow to the team. shivam dubey Shivam Dube.
