Despite having a good outing in England, fans have been majorly disappointed by India's star batter Virat Kohli, who once again failed to showcase his brilliant form.

According to some reports, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) could be having the veteran sit out on the bench during the ICC World T20I 2022, which will take place in Australia in October this year.

Virat's flop show continued in the fifth Test against England at Edgbaston, where he could manage to score only 31 runs.
