Kohli using short handle to improve front foot drive

In a bid to correct his front foot drive, India skipper Virat Kohli was seen using a shorter bat handle while practising at the nets ahead of India’s first cricket Test against Sri Lanka in two days’ time here at the Eden Gardens. Kohli called for a Cricket Association of Bengal (CAB) staff asking him to chop off the top part of his bat handle with coach Ravi Shastri and National Selector Devang Gandhi in tow. Of late, Kohli hasn’t been at ease while driving on the front foot, getting out quite a few times against Australia. Overall wickets Average runs/wicket
