Gautam Gambhir and his comments on Indian cricketers will probably never cease to exist. He is an avid cricket lover who speaks openly about what he loves and not about Indian cricket. Gambhir has taken a dig at Virat Kohli after he failed to score runs in the 2nd ODI against Sri Lanka.
Gautam Gambhir said, “Virat Kohli is there because he has scored tough runs for India whenever needed.” This indirectly implies that Virat Kohli has failed to perform for India in recent times. He also went on to say that the 50s and 100s look good, but we should talk about collective performances and not individual brilliance.

Virat Kohli recently scored his 73rd Century in the first ODI against Sri Lanka. He won the player of the match award for his sensational inning, and the Indian cricket fans were expecting the same sort of innings from him when India was in trouble during the chase against Sri Lanka in the 2nd ODI.
However, Virat Kohli failed to register a big score in the 2nd ODI and contributed only 4 runs in the team’s chase. This invited criticism from the former Indian cricketer, who went on to say that individual brilliance does not matter, but collective performances matter in international cricket.
