It was extremely necessary for Virat Kohli to spend time in the middle

Parthiv Patel, the former India wicketkeeper-batter, highlighted the importance of Virat Kohli’s half-century in the first Test against New Zealand in Bengaluru. Despite India’s loss in the match, Patel pointed out that Kohli needed the time in the middle to regain his rhythm after a long break from Test cricket.

Scoring 70 runs off 102 deliveries in India’s second innings, Kohli showed glimpses of his class and determination. Patel emphasized the significance of Kohli reaching the 9000-run mark in Test cricket, indicating that it bodes well for India in the upcoming matches.

Reflecting on Kohli’s recent lack of game time, Patel acknowledged that even the greatest players require match practice to find their form. He noted that Kohli appeared slightly out of touch in the Bangladesh series but looked more confident and assured in the Bengaluru Test.

Kohli’s absence from the England series earlier this year and his modest performances against Bangladesh raised concerns about his form. However, his composed half-century against New Zealand showcased his ability to adapt and excel under pressure.

During a discussion on Colors Cineplex, Patel also mentioned Kohli’s cautious approach at the start of his innings, particularly against Ajaz Patel. However, once Kohli settled in and played some trademark shots, his confidence grew, leading to a crucial partnership with Sarfaraz Khan.

The 35-year-old Kohli, who was dismissed for a duck in India’s first innings, demonstrated his class by striking eight fours and a six in his second innings knock. Patel highlighted that such big players only need one innings to find their rhythm, and Kohli’s performance in Bengaluru might just be the spark he needed to return to top form.

In conclusion, Patel’s analysis of Kohli’s innings in the first Test against New Zealand underscores the importance of match practice for even the most seasoned players. As India gears up for the remaining matches in the series, all eyes will be on Kohli to continue his resurgence and lead the team from the front.
