Virat Kohli has received a lot of flak witch critics and fans raising fingers at the Indian skipper for his poor run of form in both the test matches against New Zealand. However, Kohli has received support from many, some of which were unexpected. Among those to support Virat Kohli is former Pakistan captain Inzamam-ul-Haq.
Haq who is called a ‘sleeping giant’ in cricketing circles is also known for his swashbuckling knocks at the crease. His remarks came through his Youtube channel, wherein he stated, “A lot of people are talking about Kohli's technique etc. I am amazed by all these talks. He has scored 70 centuries, now how can you question his technique."
The former Pakistan captain said this following Kohli's poor show in New Zealand where he scored only 218 runs from 11 innings across formats.
Virat Kohli was criticised for his technique in the red-ball cricket match series.
Haq believes that this is a phase that happens with every cricketer and that does not mean a good batsman who has powered his team to many victories lacks techniques when he does not perform well.
