Cricket News: According to India’s batting coach Vikram Rathour, former captain Virat Kohli worked really hard to get out of his slump during Test matches. Further, Rathour is confident that he will play a significant role in the second and final Test against Bangladesh, which will begin on Thursday, December 22 at the Shere Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur.
Following a convincing 188-run victory in the series opener in Chattogram, India will be hoping to sweep the series and will be feeling confident going into this match.
Virat puts a lot of effort into his cricket, and he always has: Vikram Rathour
“Virat has always put a lot of effort into his cricket. He put in a lot of effort during his so-called lean phase. And we can still see that he continues to put in a lot of effort, work hard, and take his practice sessions very seriously. Likewise, Gill and the other guys do. You haven’t actually seen Pujara bat in the nets, so, yes, everyone works very hard and it’s great when it comes off,” according to Rathour, who was reported by India Today.
Rathour praised the frontline spinners from India, Ravichandran Ashwin and Kuldeep Yadav, for their dedication to improving their hitting techniques.
“Even with the bat, we want everyone to participate. Kuldeep Yadav and Ravichandran Ashwin both batted quite well. Therefore, it is encouraging to observe that since they do work very hard. It was encouraging to watch because everyone is eager to take the field and improve their abilities, he continued.
In the second innings, Kohli, who was removed for just one run off left-arm spinner Taijul Islam against his name, looked strong as he remained undefeated at 19 before the visitors declared their innings.
In this game, a driven Kohli will be eager to make a statement and try to end his Test century drought.
