Disappointed cricket fraternity slam India’s sloppy show against Kiwis that pushes Virat Kohli’s men on the brink of elimination

Virat Kohli
‘I don’t know if it is a fear of failure, but I know that whatever changes they made to the batting order did not work. Rohit Sharma is such a great batsman and he has been sent in at No.3. Kohli himself, who has made so many runs at No.3 demotes himself to No.4. A young player like Ishan Kishan has been given the responsibility of opening the batting. Kishan is a hit-or-miss player and it is better if a batsman like him walks in at No.4 or No.5.’
