IPL 2022: 'Will stand with him during lows', Twitterati backs Virat Kohli despite batting failure against RR

Virat Kohli still seems to be struggling to get going and hitting the big shots for RCB.

Virat Kohli, who was promoted to the top in Anuj Rawat's absence, was dismissed for only 9 runs in the second over of the second innings by Prasidh Krishna. Earlier, Kohli had registered two golden ducks in the last two games against LSG and SRH, respectively.

Faf du Plessis said during the toss that he wanted Kohli to open so that the latter could play freely. However, Kohli fell prey to a short ball, as he tried to play a pull shot. The ball grazed the bottom edge of the bat and popped up in the air only to be caught by Riyan Parag.

Here's how Twitter reacted:

A fan said he would support Kohli through all the highs and lows.

Another fan had a similar thing to say.

A fan was expressed their deep concern and sadness at their mentor's continuing bad form.

More or less everyone was all-praise for the out-of-form 'King', looking forward to his comeback.

Burnley was without Jay Rodriguez — the match-winner against Watford on Thursday — and due to a lack of options Sean Dyche could replace him with only defender Erik Pieters. “Coming into the night with a depleted squad, with only one senior boy on the bench, and playing like we did tonight, it shows the character, it shows we’re together," Mee told Amazon Prime. “To get a goal is nice. I’ve had chances cleared off the line or good saves so it’s nice to finally get one in. "It wasn’t a great ball from Westy (Westwood), it wasn’t what we worked on but you’ve got...
