Ravi Shastri Urges Virat Kohli To Take A Break From IPL To Regain Form

Former India coach Ravi Shastri has urged Virat Kohli to take a break from playing in the Indian Premier League to regain his form.

"I think a break is ideal for him because he has played non-stop cricket and he has captained the side across all formats. It will be wise of him to take a break," Shastri said.

"Sometimes you have to draw the balance. This year he is already into the tournament (IPL 2022), tomorrow if push comes to shove and you want to prolong your international career and make a mark there for 6-7 years, pull out of the IPL, for all you care," Shastri said.

Kohli has not scored a hundred since 2019. The poor run of form has also led him to step down as India and RCB captain. Kohli has scored only 128 runs in nine matches this IPL season.
