Bad phase comes for every player

Despite Virat Kohli’s consistently disappointing performances, his childhood coach Rajkumar Sharma is confident of his strong comeback. Rajkumar Sharma, who taught Virat the skills of cricket, said, “Look, I can understand that he (Virat Kohli) has failed to perform well for a long time. But it happens to every player. The ball on which he lost his wicket in the second innings of Edgbaston Test was brilliant and any player in the world can get out on it.
