The highest run-scorer of the T20 World Cup 2022, Virat Kohli, who is also the premium batsman of India, has hit a rut. Even though Kohli was portrayed as the face of world cricket in his New York debut, the King returned disastrous numbers at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium. But despite his poor form, he will retain his slot as the opener in the India vs. Canada clash. And that means Yashasvi Jaiswal will continue to warm the bench in IND vs. CAN, the last match in the USA for the India Cricket Team.


Despite setting the IPL 2024 on fire, Kohli has only scored just 5 runs, making a combined 9 deliveries in three matches so far. The fact that he has yet to hit double digits should be a concern for Team India going into the Super 8. But what's ailing King Kohli?


One of the reasons why Virat Kohli has flopped so far is the nightmarish New York pitch. It gave batters no breathing room, with the highest total in New York being only 137, which Canada scored against Ireland.
