Despite Virat Kohli’s unexpected string of single-digit scores in the ongoing T20 World Cup, India's batting coach Vikram Rathour assures fans that there is no cause for concern. Kohli, who has been in superb touch during nets, looks hungrier than ever as he prepares for the Super Eight stage.

This is notably the first time in Kohli's illustrious career that he has not reached double-digit scores in an ICC tournament, making this phase particularly unprecedented. However, Rathour remains optimistic about Kohli’s performance in the crucial matches ahead.

"I love it when every time I come there is a question about Virat Kohli, whether he is doing well or not. No concern at all, no concern at all,” Rathour stated on Saturday. 

Rathour emphasized Kohli's excellent form coming into the tournament from the IPL. "He has been batting superbly from the tournament that he came from (IPL). A couple of dismissals here doesn’t change anything, he is batting really well.” Rathour expressed confidence that India's top batter will deliver when it counts the most.

“Actually, it’s good that he is a little hungrier, he is really keen to do well and really switched on. It’s a good space to be as a batsman, I think. Looking forward to some good games and we’ve watched some good innings from him.” 

With Kohli’s determination and Rathour’s unwavering faith, fans can look forward to seeing their star batsman back in form, ready to lead India to victory in the Super Eight stage of the T20 World Cup.
