Sunil Gavaskar Criticizes Virat Kohli for “Taking Few Risks” During His 43-Ball 51 vs SRH

The cricketer ended up with a strike rate of 118.6. On the other hand, Rajat Patidar scored 50 runs from 20 balls, including four sixes in one over off Mayank Markande. However, Kohli’s drop in strike rate led to criticism from Gavaskar during the match commentary. Gavaskar suggested that Kohli should have taken more risks as RCB had other capable batters coming in the lineup.

He pointed out Patidar’s aggressive approach and urged Kohli to follow suit. Gavaskar explained that Kohli seemed to have gone into a defensive mode at one point and struggled to get out of it, leading to a lack of boundaries. He emphasized the need for Kohli to attempt big shots and regain his aggressive form.
