India vs Australia 3rd Test, Virat Kohli: Virat Kohli is seen in poor form in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy being played these days. In the second innings of the third match of the series being played in Indore, Kohli returned to the pavilion after scoring just 13 runs. Kohli has been running in bad form in Test cricket for a long time. Far from a century, even a half-century has not come out of his bat for a long time. In such a situation, his form is becoming a matter of concern for the Indian team.
Very bad figures in last 10 innings
Talking about Kohli’s last 10 Test innings, he has scored maximum 44 runs and could not even cross the 30 mark in the remaining 9 innings. In the last 10 Test innings, Kohli has scored 20, 1, 19*, 24, 1, 12, 44, 20, 22 and 13 runs. The first half-century came out of his bat 15 innings, which he scored against South Africa in Cape Town on January 11, 2022.
Last century was scored in 2019
At the same time, Kohli scored his last Test century on November 22, 2019 against Bangladesh at Eden Gardens. In that match, he scored an inning of 136 runs with the help of 18 fours. Apart from this, his Test average has also been very poor since 2019. Kohli’s Test average is 19.33 in 2020, 28.21 in 2021, 26.50 in 2022 and 22.20 in 2023 so far. All these figures of Kohli are slowly becoming a matter of concern for the team.
