Amidst calls for dropping Kohli, RCB reacts to his disappointing returns; here's what RCB tweeted
Bengaluru: The unprecedented slump in form and disappointing returns with the bat of Virat Kohli during the IPL 2022 has lately been the talk of the cricket town with several experts, fans, and pundits sharing their views on the form of the star cricketer.
In the eight innings that the former Indian skipper has stepped on the crease to bat in the IPL this year, he has only returned with 119 runs at a miniature average of 17 and a strike rate of 122.68.
Although Kohli’s fans across social media platforms have backed him and are hoping for him to return to his best once again, several users have also criticized Kohli who has 70 international centuries to his name.
Former Head Coach of Indian Cricket Team Ravi Shastri on Tuesday suggested that Kohli should pull out of the ongoing IPL and take a break from cricket before coming back to play international cricket.
Kohli’s franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore on Wednesday reacted to the challenge Kohli is facing and backed the ace Indian cricketer to come back stronger. In a tweet on Wednesday after the team’s defeat against the Rajasthan Royals, RCB wrote “The only way @imVkohli knows to take on a challenge, is to stare at it without any fear!”
Kohli has been the star performer for the RCB and has been with them ever since the inception of IPL in 2008 becoming the highest run-getter in the history of the IPL.
Both RCB and fans will be hoping that Kohli gets his touch back in the second half of the IPL as they lay in a critical territory (fifth position after their match against RR on Tuesday) on the points table at the moment.

Delegation requests for Karnataka HC Bench in coastal districts, hands petition to Chief Justice
Udupi: A delegation of the High Court Bench Struggle Committee met and submitted a petition to the Karnataka High Court Chief Justice Vibhu Bakhru at the Circuit House urging the opening of a High Court Bench in the coastal belt as well as a Mobile High Court Bench in Mangaluru.
MLC and convener of the Committee Ivan D’Souza, who spoke to the Chief Justice on the occasion, explained that the people of the coastal belt find it difficult to travel to Bengaluru to fight a petition in the High Court. The problem only aggravated during monsoon. D’Souza added that there was a delay in clearing the cases of Udupi, Chikkamagaluru and Kodagu districts, which was causing further inconvenience to the people.
The MLC, who pointed out that Chief Minister Siddaramaiah had also shown his preference for establishing a High Court Bench in the coastal region, requested for an approval to establish a Mobile High Court Bench first.
