WHAT IS THE REASON FOR KOHLI'S LACK OF FORM IN IPL 2020?
It’s not often that you see Virat Kohli struggle Barring that infamous tour to England in 2014, Kohli has been one of the most consistent and successful batsmen across formats. In limited-overs cricket, especially, Kohli is considered the best in the world at the moment. In fact, he is one of the leading run-getters in IPL history with 5430 runs at an average of 37.19. That is why his struggle, if you may call it that, in the ongoing season of the IPL, has come as a surprise to many. In the 3 matches that the Royal Challengers Bangalore skipper has played so far, he has managed scores of 14 off 11 balls against Sunrisers Hyderabad, 1 off 5 balls against Kings XI Punjab, and 3 off 11 balls against Mumbai Indians. These are not scores that one associates with Virat Kohli in the IPL. So, where is Kohli going wrong?

THE BREAK HAS HAMPERED HIS FLOW
