Virat Kohli's current issues were further explained by Gavaskar, who asserted that the modern-day great is plagued by the constant line outside the off-stump and that his "anxiety" to get back to his scoring form is making matters worse.
Digital Desk: The legendary Indian
cricketer Sunil Gavaskar claimed he is willing to assist Virat Kohli in getting
out of his slump and said that he may know what is impairing the star batter's
performance in all formats of the game. Gavaskar suggested that his advice could
benefit Kohli in overcoming the much-discussed form slump.
Addressing the media, Sunil Gavaskar stated that all he needs is
20 minutes with Virat Kohli to explain what he thinks is weighing the star
batter down today, one day after India's 2-1 ODI series victory in England.
Virat Kohli's current issues were further explained by Gavaskar, who

off-stump and that his "anxiety" to get back to his scoring form is
making matters worse.
Gavaskar's remarks was made as Kohli is going through one of his most
difficult periods professionally. In the just finished ODI series, the top
batsman scored just 33 runs in two ODIs and 12 runs in two T20Is. The highly
anticipated Birmingham Test saw Kohli return from a break, but the great
batsman only scored 31 runs over the course of two innings, extending his
century drought past the two-year mark.
"If I had about 20 minutes with him, I would be able to tell him

him but it could, particularly with regards to that off-stump line,"
Gavaskar told media.
