Renowned Indian cricketer Virat Kohli is currently on a break from the Indian team. He has not played a single Test in the series against England so far. Nonetheless, this break has proved costly for Virat Kohli. Before discussing the danger looming over Virat Kohli, it is necessary to consider the loss he has incurred due to taking a break from the Indian team. If you're wondering why this break has proven expensive for Virat, it's because he has suffered a setback in the ICC Test batsmen rankings.
The ICC has released the Test batsmen rankings, in which Virat Kohli has slipped two places. Virat Kohli has slipped from 7th to 9th place in the latest Test rankings, with 744 rating points. Ken Williamson of New Zealand, who recently became a father for the third time, is at the top of the ICC Test batsmen rankings with 893 rating points. Meanwhile, Australia's Steve Smith has 818 points and is in second place, while England's Joe Root is third with 799 rating points. This means that among the top four batsmen in modern cricket, only Virat Kohli is outside the top five. The other three have maintained their positions in the top three.
Now, let's talk about the danger that Virat Kohli may face. This danger is related to his exclusion from the top 10 in the ICC Test batsmen rankings. If Virat fails to make a comeback in the final Test against England in Dharamshala, it is very likely that he will fall out of the top 10 batsmen list. Consequently, the only Indian batsman who appears in the top 10 Test rankings of the ICC will also be absent.
This scenario underscores the significance of Virat Kohli's return to form in the upcoming match against England. His performance will not only impact his personal rankings but also the representation of Indian batsmen in the top echelons of international cricket.
