Debate on Virat Kohli’s form continues: –
Is Virat back in form now or not? The debate on this continues. When former cricketer Gautam Gambhir was asked about this, he gave a blunt answer saying that Virat or any batsman cannot be judged against a team like Hong Kong.
Gautam Gambhir, “Hong Kong may not be the right team” :-
On Star Sports, Gambhir said, ‘Maybe this is not the right opposition team, against which we can judge the batting of Virat or any batsman, but yes these runs were necessary. You have to make an effort to score runs in the middle, no matter what the opposing team is.
You just can’t judge whether he was in his rhythm or not. I hope he looks to be in better form in the times to come as Hong Kong’s bowling was not a strong bowling attack.

Kohli can be seen playing in better rhythm against Pakistan and Afghanistan;-
Gambhir said, ‘Virat needed this innings a lot as he is coming after a long gap. It is not easy for any player to score runs in the first match after the break. The fast bowlers were getting help in the first match, but now against Pakistan or Afghanistan, Virat can be seen playing in a better rhythm.
