Virat Kohli: Virat Kohli’s struggle against spin is getting deeper. India’s star batsman had difficulty facing the Indian spin trio during a practice session in the Kanpur nets ahead of the second Test against Bangladesh starting on Friday. The final match of the two-Test series between India and Bangladesh is to be played at the Green Park Stadium in Kanpur from September 27, for which Team India is preparing fiercely.
Before the start of the second Test, fans are definitely worried about Virat Kohli’s form. Virat Kohli flopped with the bat in both innings of the Chennai Test. King Kohli still looks uncomfortable playing against spin bowling. Kohli was also seen in dilemma while facing the Indian spinners during the net session. In the second innings of the Chennai Test, off-spinner Mehidy Hasan Miraz made Kohli his victim. He returned to the pavilion after scoring 19 runs.
This was the 18th time since 2021 that Kohli was dismissed by a spinner. Let us tell you that earlier when the ODI series was played against Sri Lanka, he was out against spinners in all three innings there too. In such a situation, Virat’s struggle against spinners is becoming a matter of concern not only for him but also for the team management.

On Wednesday, the Indian team had its first net session in Kanpur. During this, Virat Kohli faced the spin trio in the nets. According to media reports, Kohli was trying to play an inside-out shot against Ravindra Jadeja during the practice session and during this he missed three times in a row. The veteran batsman also looked disappointed because of this. At the same time, Kohli was also bowled while playing against Axar Patel.
Let us tell you that Virat Kohli does not get a good start in many matches, but he has been successful in converting it into a big innings. His poor form has also cost him in the ICC Test rankings of batsmen. In the latest rankings, Kohli has suffered a loss of five places and now he is out of the top 10. This legendary right-handed batsman has now reached the 12th position.
