Virat Kohli falls out of top 10 in latest ICC Test rankings: new low for the Indian batsman since 2016
Highlights
- Rishabh Pant has made it to the top 5 in the list
- Jonny Bairstow is ranked number 10 on the list
Few are calling it a lack of form, few are calling it bad luck. When it comes to Virat and his poor outings, there is always a mixed bag of reactions. Some are calling him out for not being responsible enough as a senior player and some are asking him to retire.
There is a thin line of difference between “aggression” and “bad conduct” on the cricket field and the former Indian skipper just does not seem to get it. Kohli’s greatest skill was his capability to channel aggression into spectacular performances, but for now, it seems like the aggression has stayed and the performances have taken a back seat. The wait for Virat’s 71st century continues and the moment it looks like he is far away from it. Virat gave up captaincy from all formats to reduce the workload from his shoulders but as of now, none of it is visible in his batting so far.
Kohli’s cricketing innings has hit a rough patch and now he is struggling to make any kind of notable contributions to team India. In the latest ICC rankings, Virat Kohli has dropped to number 13 from number 10 and it is high time he regains his old form back.
