Javed’s view on Kohli
While talking to Pak. Tv Javed expressed how technically sound batters for example Kane, Babar, and Root can have some bad and rough patches in their career which is very similar to Kohli. Javed feels due to changes in his batting style. He is struggling, even more, he should keep patience and wait for the right time. Javed also said,
“There are two types of great players. One is players who, if they get stuck, their rough patch continues for a long time. The others are technically-sound players, whose rough patch cannot continue that long, like Babar Azam, Kane Williamson, Joe Root. It is difficult to find their weakness. Kohli gets stuck at times with those deliveries outside off stump. James Anderson has targetted that a million times. Last day I was watching him bat and I felt that he is now consciously trying not to play those deliveries from a distance. When you change your technique, these problems will surface. To come out of it, he can try playing a big knock without being conscious. That will help him sustain a purple patch for a long time,”
