Virat Kohli is not suitable for T20, the team management is thinking of replacing Kohli with a young person in the upcoming T20 World Cup - such news has been coming in the Indian media for a long time.

Many were saying that Kohli's T20 career will end if he doesn't do well in this year's IPL. This year's IPL saw the first century at the hands of that Kohli. So the criticism has stopped? no The reason is strikerate.

Kohli scored a century against Rajasthan Royals in Royal Challengers Bangalore's last match. He played an unbeaten innings of 113 runs. He completed the century off 67 balls. Which is joint slowest in IPL.

Kohli has already scored three 50 plus scores this season. A century in between. But even after Kohli's century, the team lost. Naturally, the question arises about the strike rate. This time Caribbean legend Brian Lara stood by Kohli on the strike issue.

T20 World Cup in June. Should 'Slow' Kohli be kept in T20 World Cup squad? To such a question, Brian Lara said, 'Strikerate always depends on the situation. 130-140 strikerate is fine for an opener. But when it comes to batting in the middle order, batting at a strike rate of 150-160 is essential. In this year's IPL, we have seen that the batsmen are playing at 200 strikerates.

What should happen in the case of Kohli? Despite opening in the IPL, Kohli dropped to three in the national team. The Caribbean legend feels that Kohli should be in the team.

Lara said, 'It is not bad to start with 130 strikerate for an opener like Virat. But the speed should be increased according to the amount of time spent at the crease. It is better if you can take it to more than 160 later. But if you ask me what should be India's top order in the World Cup, I would say clearly - Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill. I am thinking about everything.
