Sanjay Manjrekar, who has been analyzing Virat Kohli’s problems, has pointed out technical shortcomings in the RCB star’s technique.
In the IPL 2022 Qualifier 2 match between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Rajasthan Royals, Virat Kohli was removed early by Prasidh Krishna. Kohli edged a bouncing outside off ball right into Sanju Samson’s clutches.

Since the start of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2022 season, Virat Kohli’s “form” has been in the news. Kohli has been dismissed for a variety of reasons this season, from being caught by spinners to being duped by bouncers. Many commentators have weighed in on the batting legend.

Former cricketers have pushed the Royal Challengers Bangalore veteran to put his Indian cap aside and help his IPL team win its first title. Kohli, on the other hand, had one of his poorest campaigns with the RCB, hitting 341 runs at an average of 22.73 with a strike rate of 115.98 in 16 matches.
‘Kohli needs to work on his technical flaws’: Sanjay Manjrekar
Though there is no doubting that Kohli has already shown wonderful strength of character to put his disappointments behind him and start over in each game, Sanjay Manjrekar believes the 33-year-struggles old’s will not be resolved solely through mental toughness. Kohli, on the other hand, must overcome technical deficiencies.
Virat wanting to be on the front foot no matter what is not helping his cause. Mental toughness takes you far sure, but technical issues cannot be ignored completely. Crunch game.. front foot to a short of length bouncing ball cost him his wicket again.
