India batter Virat Kohli has been under the spotlight for his batting in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25.

India batter Virat Kohli has been under the spotlight for his batting in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. The batter started the series on a high as he hit a magnificent century in the opening game the Perth. 

However, after that, Virat Kohli hasn't been at his best, as he has fallen cheaply and has bagged a series of low scores. The premier batter has struggled against the balls outside off as Australia pacers have found the weakness to send him packing early on in innings. 

After scoring a century in Perth, Virat Kohli has struggled to get going with most of his dismissals coming against the balls outside off. The premier batter after that innings in Perth has added just 26 runs, which is a cause for concern. 

In Adelaide, Virat Kohli got out against Mitchell Starc and then Scott Boland. In the Gabba Test, he got out while driving the ball towards cover against Hazlewood. This has seen him getting criticised a lot for his approach. 

But to negate this threat, Virat Kohli worked hard in the nets. As per the reports in Sports Tak, it is learned that the batter focussed on leaving the ball and looked very solid, best in the nets so far in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25.

Virat Kohli reportedly asked Harshit Rana and Prasidh Krishna to bowl to him outside off stump, asks fast bowlers to bowl fast

Virat Kohli reportedly asked Harshit Rana and Prasidh Krishna to bowl to him outside off stump. Not only this, the fast bowler also was telling the pacers to bowl fast and also was seen shouldering their arm so that the bowler would not find an edge even if there was extra bounce.  

Virat Kohli will be key for India going into the next match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25. He would be keen to silence all his critics and help his team win the next game of the series at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Melbourne.
