Sanjay Manjrekar has now given his take on Kohli's lean patch, saying his judgement of length has gone down, and it isn't as great as it used to be.

Kohli made his first bow in Australia during the 2011-12 series and he ended up scoring maiden Test hundred as well. Kohli was the highest run-getter for India. In his second series in Australia,, Kohli scored a total of 692 runs in 4 matches to establish himself as the world's best.

Rohit Sharma led India to the T20 World Cup title in June earlier this year and announced his retirement from the format along with Virat Kohli, who played a knock of 76 runs in the final against South Africa in Bridgetown.
