Australia Executed Their Disciplined Plan Of Dismissing Kohli: Clarke
Around The Wicket: Former Australia captain Michael Clarke has lauded the Pat Cummins-led side for executing their "disciplined plans" of dismissing the talismanic Virat Kohli in the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy series.
Despite making an unbeaten century in the second innings during India’s 295-run win in Perth, Kohli hasn’t done anything substantial, as seen from his scores of 7, 11, 3, 36 and 5 in the next five innings in Adelaide, Brisbane and Melbourne. What’s been more worrying is, all six of Kohli’s dismissals in the current series have been to chasing balls outside the off stump.
"I think Australia bowled well with a disciplined plan, and they have executed it. I think Virat's the type of player, though, in any format, he really thrives on with bat on ball, and that gives him confidence. He wants to hit the ball. He's never been a big leaver, and there's always been that error outside off stump that a lot of teams have targeted, because he's such a good player.
