    Champions Trophy: Virat Is Trying A Bit Too Hard, Feels Kumble

    ESPNcricinfo Match Day: Former India captain and head coach Anil Kumble feels that Virat Kohli is "trying too hard" to come out of his lean patch after he scored 22 off 38 against Bangladesh in the Champions Trophy clash in Dubai on Thursday.

    Kohli failed to convert his start to a big knock and fell victim to leg-spinner Rishad Hossain. However, opener Shubman Gill's unbeaten 101 combined with KL Rahul's 41 powered India to a six-wicket win.

    Meanwhile, Kohli's sluggish form has been a concern for the Indian team as the former captain has managed just 137 runs in the six ODI innings he has played after the 2023 World Cup, with a single half-century. His struggles were persistent during India's five-match Test tour of Australia, barring a century in Perth.
