On the sporting front, Virat Kohli will be seen next facing England in the final test match.
Virat Kohli is going through a rough patch in his career, having not scored a century in nearly three years.
Meanwhile, Virat Kohli struggled with form in the recently concluded fifteenth edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL). Virat Kohli, who hasn’t scored an international century in over two and a half years, is in the midst of his worst slump, with 341 runs in 16 IPL games at a below-par average of 22.73 and two half-centuries. In fact, he started the first inning in the majority of games.
In June and July, India will visit the United Kingdom. They will begin with a T20 series against Ireland before facing England in one Test (5th Test of the 2021 series) and six white-ball games. For RCB, Virat Kohli is having one of his worst IPL seasons. He has three golden ducks (first ball dismissals) to his credit.
Virat Kohli compared his current situation to a few previous instances. “It is happening to me on the spur of the moment.” It all started in England in 2018 when I was dropped on 21, and the juggernaut could have started again like it did on the 2014 tour. I’m not going to stand here being ungrateful for everything I have.
Meanwhile, beginning June 9, India will host South Africa for five Twenty20 Internationals. Senior all-rounders such as Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, and Jasprit Bumrah have been rested for this series.
