Virat Kohli should take three months’ rest and enjoy life, says Michael Vaughan

Cricket legends have expressed their opinion about Virat Kohli’s form. Meanwhile, Virat has been rested for next month’s West Indies-India series. Now former England captain Michael Vaughan has shared some things about his form. He believes that Virat Kohli is going through a bad phase and he needs three months’ rest to come out of it all.

The 33-year-old has played over 100 innings in all formats of cricket, including the IPL, since scoring 136 against Bangladesh in Kolkata in November 2019. innings in Kolkata but is yet to score his 71st international century which would put him next to Ricky Ponting in terms of most centuries.

In the rescheduled fifth Test against England, two innings of 11 and 20 have added to the drought with Kohli’s bat. The star batsman looked in good form during his stay in the middle, but he failed to convert his start into a big innings.

“I especially look up to Virat Kohli. I knew he got some rest at the end of the IPL. But he looks at me as if he needs more rest. Looks like he needs to stay away from cricket for three months. Go and sit on a beach,” Vaughan told Cricbuzz.

“Go and do what you can with your family because of a career spanning 20 years, which is probably going to get him because he’s such a good player. Is taking a three-month break going to affect him? No. Will it help him? Yes,” he said.

Vaughan also questioned the India-England series schedule, saying it is impossible for players to play in all three formats in a span of a few days.

“I just saw the India and England schedule. This is ridiculous. We will see more of this in the next few years. It is absolutely impossible that players from all formats will be able to play in all three formats,” he said.

“The management of all these teams are going to have to be very clever in terms of giving them a breather.”
