James Anderson And Virat Kohli Controversy:

Moving of their series in 2016, the English player gave this statement about Virat Kohli: “I am not sure if Virat Kohli has changed or not. I just feel like any technical deficiencies he has got are not in play out here. The wickets just take that out of the equation. There is not enough speed in the wickets to get the nicks as we did against him in England with a bit more movement.”

If we talk about which team troubled Kohli in the past, it will be Team England. And so, it was very important for him to put the opponent team of the 2014 tour to England behind him and have a start fresh in the five-match Test series at home. Being the captain and as a batsman Virat Kohli was flawless in the series.

He bagged 655 runs in five matches including the highest score of 235 runs and became the only third player after Don Bradman and Ricky Ponting to score three double centuries in a calendar. Virat Kohli has scores of 40, 49*, 167, 81, 62, 6*, 235 and 15 all throughout the series as India won 4-0.  James Anderson’s controversy has helped Kohli to demolish the England team.
