Kohli was dismissed for 16 in the second ODI against England and soon after, Babar put out a tweet, saying "this too shall pass".

On the eve of the first Test against Sri Lanka, Babar addressed a press conference and he was asked about his tweet on Kohli.
New Zealand fast bowler Adam Milne has been ruled out of the remainder of the team's limited-overs tour of Europe due to an Achilles injury. Milne felt pain in his left Achilles during the team's first net session in Ireland and a scan this week revealed he would need some rest and rehabilitation. The recovery timeline for the injury means he will likely only be available for the final two matches of the Tour against the Netherlands. With extra bowling cover needed in the squad for the remainder of the tour, the selectors felt Jacob Duffy was deserving of selection and that he had been impressive in his time away with the Test and ODI squads in England and Ireland respectively.
Pakistan batsman Imam-ul-Haq is enjoying the best season of his career. This year has been a prolific one for the left-handed batsman, with a few records thrown in for good measure.
Star India batter Virat Kohli has been going through a lean patch with the bat, having failed to score a century in nearly three years. While some experts have failed to point out any flaws in his technique, some feel that the 33-year-old batters should take some time away from the game. In the same light, former Pakistan spinner Mushtaq Ahmed recently revealed that he gave Kohli some advice regarding his batting, and the latter has certainly worked on it.
Pakistan captain Babar Azam has come out in support of star Indian batter Virat Kohli after the latter's poor run of form. Babar took to his Twitter account and wrote, "This too shall pass. Stay strong. #ViratKohli," along with a photo of him and Kohli. After missing the first ODI against England with a groin injury, Kohli made just 16 in the second match, which India lost by 100 runs at Lord's.
Reece Topley returned the best figures by an England bowler in a one-day international when the left-arm quick took 6-24 against India at Lord's on Thursday. The 28-year-old's haul surpassed retired all-rounder Paul Collingwood's 6-31 against Bangladesh at Trent Bridge in 2005 and was only the fourth instance of an England bowler taking six wickets at this level, with all-rounder Chris Woakes having performed the feat on two occasions.
