Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting has said that Virat Kohli is fooling himself that he is not tired.
Virat Kohli, the former captain of the Indian team, has been struggling to score a single century for the past two years. Virat Kohli, also known as the ‘Run Machine’, continued to falter in batting, announcing his resignation from the captaincy. Virat Kohli has announced that he will step down as captain of the Bangalore team for the IPL series, just as he stepped down as captain of the Indian team.
With Kohli announcing his departure from the captaincy to focus entirely on batting, fans were no longer expecting his old game from Virat Kohli.
The only disappointment for the fans, who had been expecting a lot of great things from Virat Kohli in the IPL series, came in every match.
Due to this Virat Kohli is advising the former players to rest for a while and then play. But Virat Kohli is always there despite all that.
Former Australia captain Ricky Ponting told a news conference that Virat Kohli’s decision was “very bad”.
“Bad form has come at some point in everyone’s life. Virat Kohli has not had bad form for the last 10 to 12 years, but he is tired of the recent IPL series, which he has to fix mentally and practically. What I know from my experience is that Virat Kohli deceives himself that he is not tired, that he thinks he is not physically and mentally exhausted, and that he is making efforts and exercises to correct his bad form. It’s worth noting that Ricky Ponting said that all of that would not fix the problem and that it would take more than two days for you to understand it.
