'Time to hang up the boots': Fans react as Virat Kohli once again fails to deliver

Virat Kohli has failed to reach a half-century in his last nine Test innings, with his last successful feat of this magnitude occurring against South Africa in Cape Town in January of 2020. India's batting stalwart Virat Kohli has been unable to replicate his T20Is and ODIs success in the longest format of the game. Not only has he failed to score centuries, but even half-centuries have eluded him. While he had been struggling in the previous few games, Kohli has looked in good form since the first innings of the Delhi Test. However, his occasional lapses in judgement have been his downfall. As Kohli strode out to the crease in the second innings of the third Test, following the dismissal of Rohit Sharma, he exuded confidence from the very first ball he faced. He confidently dispatched an in-drifter from Matthew Kuhnemann, and then proceeded to bat with ease, displaying a mastery of both attack and defence as he adjusted his approach to the varying lengths of the deliveries. However, Kohli was taken aback by an oddball that shot up after pitching and hit him on the glove. Although he survived as the ball dropped right in front of Peter Handscomb, it raised doubts in Kohli's mind. The batter, however, responded with a beautiful backfoot drive after two deliveries. But on the very next ball, Kohli went for a pull shot against a ball that was skidding from the length, leaving him vulnerable to a potential dismissal.

From war on black money to dealing with Pakistan:How has the Modi govt fared so far? The BJP-led NDA completed three years at the Centre. BJP came to power after a high-octane election campaign where every single aspect of the previous UPA govt was questioned. The UPA, after 10 years in power, was attacked for its so-called ‘jobless growth’, mocked over its Pakistan policy and attacked for several corruption scandals.

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has said that India's high growth rate in recent years did not lead to a matching increase in formal sector jobs and labour market participation has declined. The IMF's report on its annual consultations with India released in Washington said that while India has lifted millions out of poverty as one of the world's fastest-growing economies, "recent labour market data suggests that unemployment is high while labour force participation has decreased."
