[PICTURES] Is the Border-Gavaskar Trophy (2024-25) the final frontier for Virat Kohli's Test career?
- Thread starter FearlessRoar
- Start date
Biggest matches kohli played vs pakistan:
2017 ct final
2011 wc semi
No great performance
Vs aus:
2015 semi
2023 final
Wtc final
No trophy to show
Kphli is so overrated in ko stages. He never performs in ko stages of odi world cup that's why I actually don't rate him highly in odi
He had the worlds best attack in peak form in 2019. Dropped guess what shami and played yuzi channel and this babbu kumar.
Effin tulla. And then kept playing msd and jhadav when he knew they are past it. We could have won the wc in 2019.
In 2023 pitch played a role in the final and we were without pandya and pant. Pandya was key for us. Also I would say jaiswal should have played over sky. Sky has full pr so yea

Kohli should retire after australia tour now. No matter if he smashes them or he fails in the next games, time is up for him and he should retire

SF 2015 - clearly failed
2023 final- 53 off 64 balls. He did not fail. if you have followed the match conditions/expert view, its pitch conditions ( bad pitch doctoring). The same pitch Pakistan was bundled out for 190 due to slowness/dryness of the pitch
Kohlis knock out in t20
2014 t20 semis against SA- Man of the match
2014 t20 final- 77 against SL
2016 t20 virtual quarter final against AUS- Man of the Match
2016 t20 semis- 87 off 48 .
2022 t20 pak league match- 26 off 8 needed. the famous/infamous two back to back sixes
2013 ODI champions trophy final - Highest run getter
2022 t20 final- 76 runs with India scoring highest runs in a world final.
2023 odi semifinal- Century
2023 ODI final- half century. Its KL Rahul's 66 off 105 which undone India, not kohl's 53 off 63 balls
Objectively speaking , Kohli failed in some key Knock out matches but surely scored more/contribued than he failed in knock outs. You should avoid confirmation bias and speak with stats/data.

Sunil Gavaskar took centre stage and compared Virat Kohli to tennis legends like Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal, and Novak Djokovic as when they do not lift titles, people think that they are out of form, he said:
“It’s like I said in commentary that Roger Federer, Novak Djokovic, and Rafa Nadal, they are title winners. If they lose in the semi-finals, people say, ‘Oh, they’re not in form.’ Anybody else getting into the semi-finals, you would say, ‘Oh, what a wonderful performance‘,”
“Similarly, with Virat Kohli, because everybody is so used to him scoring so many hundreds quite regularly, when he doesn’t score 100, even if he’s getting 70-80—which a lot of guys will be very happy to get—people say, ‘Look, he’s not scoring runs.’ And that is the reason why there was that feeling. But then again, Indian fans, they’re greedy fans. They’re not going to be happy with their idol scoring only 60-70s. They want their icons, their idols, to score hundreds, and that is the reason there was this little talk about, ‘Oh, he hasn’t got a hundred since July 2023.’ July 2023 is just about a year ago,”

Arguably the greatest player in ICC events? Surely has to be in the conversations.
His 55* against Pakistan in Kolkata 2016 wt20 is one of the most underappreciated knocks of all time. All the celebs (Amitabh, Sachin, Amir) were present in that match and India were under Huge pressure in that match after losing badly the opener against NZ and Kohli almost single handedly won us the match against Pakistan who were underwhelming with ball. That was a virtual knockout match against arch rivals for us due to poor net run rate after huge defeat against Nz.
Kohli also won the Man of the Series on 3 different occasions.
2014 WT20
2016 WT20
2023 ODI WC
No other batsmen has even won more than 1 Man of the Series award in ICC Tournaments.

I don’t think anyone from the whole subcontinent has ever delivered as much as Kohli did in ICC ko events.
The best KO player from Asia.
In odi he was poor. Averages only 31 across wc's in ko stages. And icc odi tourneys. That's poor.

In 2015 World Cup also, Kohli again proved that he was the father of Pakistan by scoring a match winning hundred vs Pakistan.
He already gave heartbreak to Pakistan in that T20 World Cup 2022 which confirmed any doubts if anyone was having.

I'm asking for Australia.
What you and @Devadwal don't understand is that Travis head has been the phupa of India in 2 icc events while Kohli has been the Rejected Bhanja of Australia in 2015 and 2023.
Travis Head > Kohli

BG 20024 final frontier for Kohli? I am not sure how this thread make sense.
Kohli's total number of tons in Aus > Last 10 years all Aus bastmen tons in India

Let’s make it one more in Adelaide Virat.
King is global face of cricket .
Australian PM said "My personal doctor is a huge fan of Virat Kohli - fan isn't quite a word to explain how passionate he is for Virat Kohli. When I told him, I am gonna meet Virat Kohli, he couldn't believe - he asked me to get an autograph of Kohli
