Kohli has been going through a rough patch in his career. Since November 2019, Kohli hasn’t scored a single century at the highest level. Even in the 2022 edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL), Kohli failed to score consistently for the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), captained by Faf du Plessis.
