Haven’t been disciplined enough to stick in there: Kohli on his outside off-stump troubles

MELBOURNE: Indian superstar Virat Kohli on Thursday admitted he has not been disciplined enough in his last two-three innings of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and plans to take a lot more time before going for his strokes in the remaining two Tests.

Majority of Kohli’s dismissals have come via the ball outside the off-stump, reminiscent of his struggles in England back in 2014. His bat has gone quiet following a memorable hundred in Perth.

“Last two three innings have not gone the way I wanted to. I have not been disciplined enough to stick in there and really grind it out. That is the challenge Test cricket brings,” Kohli told ‘Fox Sports ‘before the start of the Boxing Day Test.
