Harsha Bhogle's Latest Comment On Virat Kohli Is Creating A Buzz. Check Out His Viral Clip

Even though the video seems edited and is a part of the longer interaction he was having, which Bhogle himself later claimed in his defense, the clip has already gone viral in cricket fan circles.

Harsha Bhogle, the Indian broadcaster who is known for his insights on cricket, suddenly finds himself as the subject of media headlines after a clip featuring his views on Virat Kohli has surfaced online. The cricket commentator can be seen suggesting that in T20 cricket, sometimes Kohli getting out, can in fact be beneficial for his team despite him being one of the greatest of the game. Even though the video seems edited and is a part of the longer interaction he was having, which Bhogle himself later claimed in his defense, the clip has already gone viral in cricket fan circles.

"Virat Kohli is a great example. Virat Kohli is playing Test cricket for India and he isn’t supposed to get out. Now, he goes to play for RCB, for India; beyond a certain point, it might actually been the interest of the side for him to get out. How do you reconcile to the fact that I am one of the greatest who have played the game but actually at this stage, it’s in the team’s interest that I get out because the person who is coming in will probably hit 20 of 6 balls. Viral Kohli is an extreme example," Bhogle can be heard saying in the video posted by news agency PTI.

Bhogle, however, later asked PTI to share the full video. 

"This is an example of what I was talking about with social media. The video is cropped just before the point where I say that Virat is capable of playing across situations but that I was only highlighting how even the greatest players have to keep adjusting demands and priorities. Come on  @PTI_News I am sure you can do better. With selectively edited reporting, nobody will be able to articulate thoughts again. Can you put out the whole clip please?," he posted on X.
