IND vs SL Asia Cup 2023: There is no doubt that Virat Kohli is one of the greatest batsmen in the world. After all, there are not many batsmen who have 77 career centuries to their name.
The former Indian skipper reached his 77th career century during the IND vs PAK Asia Cup 2023 match. It was a sensational and typical Kohli innings. This inning really sets him apart from all the other players.
But a worrisome stat has started to come around that shows Virat Kohli’s disappointing performances after centuries since last year. This stat shows that Kohli is not the old boss who can score back-to-back centuries now.
Kohli’s Disappointing Performances After Centuries.
Virat Kohli reached his 71st century after a three-year-long break in 2022 against Afghanistan. He has scored 6 six centuries since then, but it has not been the same in any way.
Previously, Kohli used to score back-to-back consecutive centuries. That is the reason that he reached 70 centuries so quickly in his career. But a recent stat after his 71st shows that he always flops in the next inning after his century.
Here are his scores in the innings following his centuries:
- After 71st century – 2(7)
- After 72th century – 1(5)
- After 73rd century – 4(9)
- After74th century – 4(9)
- After 75th century – 4(9)
- After 76th century – 4(7)
- After 77th century – 3 (12)
Same Fate In IND vs SL Asia Cup 2023 Match
The same fate took place in the IND vs SL Asia Cup 2023 round 4 match when Virat Kohli once again departed for just 3 runs. He completed his 77th century in the previous match of the tournament. If this is a trend then we would like to stop it as soon as possible.
