New Delhi: Ex-RCB skipper Virat Kohli, the highest run-scorer in Indian Premier League (IPL) history, is going through the worst phase of his career. So far this season, Virat has scored only 119 runs at an average of 17 in 8 IPL matches. During this, he was run out twice and also registered back-to-back Golden Ducks. This is the first time in Kohli's IPL career that he has been dismissed for zero twice in a season and surprisingly, both the times he got out on the first ball.
Struggling with poor form, Virat Kohli was spotted having a chat with West Indies legend and current SRH batting coach Brian Lara after RCB's match against Sunrisers Hyderabad. It seemed like Kohli was taking special tips from the veteran. The duo's picture went viral on Twitter.
Talking about IPL 2022, Royal Challengers Bangalore's outing against Hyderabad was very disappointing. Invited to bat after losing the toss, Bangalore was bundled up for 68 runs Apart from Kohli, the rest of the RCB batters too failed to score runs. Only two Bangalore batters managed to touch the double-figure. Maxwell scored 12 and Prabhudesai made 15.
Sunrisers Hyderabad chased down the paltry target inside 8 overs on the back of a blistering 47-run knock by Abhishek Sharma. Hyderabad won the match with 72 balls to spare. This is Hyderabad's 5th biggest win in the history of IPL in terms of balls remaining.
