As the Indian cricketer Virat Kohli continues to struggle with his form in the T20 World Cup 2024, legendary West Indian batter Brian Lara has come forward to offer words of encouragement to the struggling star. Kohli has had a tough time recently, with only three single-digit scores and a slow 24 runs in 24 balls against Afghanistan, leaving fans and critics alike wondering if he will ever regain his form. However, Lara believes that Kohli is not far away from a return to his best.
According to Lara, the key to Kohli’s resurgence lies in spending more time in the middle. He cites Kohli’s recent performance against Afghanistan, where he hit a straight six off Naveen-ul-Haq’s bowling, as a sign that he is on the cusp of a return to form. Lara attributes Kohli’s poor form to a lack of time in the middle, stating that the 35-year-old cricketer is close to regaining his form. He urges fans to be patient with Kohli, saying that when he gets into full swing, it’s a different story.

Lara’s words of wisdom are likely to boost Kohli’s confidence and prove to be a timely reminder that the struggling star is just one game away from getting back to his best. The legendary batter has a deep understanding of Kohli’s game and knows what it takes to get out of tough situations. Kohli has been an integral part of Team India’s success over the years, and Lara’s faith in him will undoubtedly be music to the ears of fans and teammates alike.
As Team India continues their campaign in the T20 World Cup, Lara’s comments will be music to their ears. With three unbeaten matches under their belt, the team will be looking to maintain their momentum and push for a deep run in the tournament. Lara’s words of wisdom may prove to be the spark that Kohli needs to get his form back on track, and if he does, it could be a deciding factor in Team India’s chances of lifting the coveted trophy.
