"Technique Isn't Made For...": Cheteshwar Pujara's Blunt Verdict On 'Struggling' Virat Kohli

It was a disappointing show from Indian cricket team star batter Virat Kohli once again as he was dismissed cheaply on Day 3 of the third Test match against Australia in Brisbane on Monday. Kohli managed to score just three runs before he was caught behind the wicket by Alex Carey off the bowling of Josh Hazlewood. Besides the century in the first Test, Kohli has been extremely inconsistent for the team and at stumps, India were left struggling on 51/4. During his analysis, Pujara pointed out that Kohli's strength lies in playing against the old ball. With India's top-order batters also struggling for runs, he has been forced to play the new ball, and his 'technique' has not helped.
