Virat Kohli is an Indian cricketer. And It is acceptable that he is currently the best batsman in the world and has achieved good rankings in all game formats. Despite being a side captain, he has performed well, and the captaincy pressure has not moved him even a bit. He is just one century away from becoming the player who hit 2nd most tons in international cricket after Sachin Tendulkar.

Virat Kohli's current form
One should not forget that Virat Kohli is also a normal batsman like others, and when players like Sachin Tendulkar and Brian Lara can go out of form, it is always possible for Virat Kohli too. So if you look at the records, he is certainly better than the others. However, he is still a human being, and human beings undergo bad times, which is quite natural. All he needs is some support from the Indian cricket fans, and the good times would be back again. However, if we criticize him for this, we may lose the backbone of Indian cricket.
He has been performing consistently at the highest level in all formats, but eventually, there are hiccups in his current form, and he cannot convert his starts into bigger ones of late.
Maybe it's due to the constant playing and toiling calendar he has been through for the last 4 years and also surmounting pressure due to the absence of Rohit and MS in the team, which is causing him to think a lot for captaincy and is not getting good on-field support which I think he was always blessed with.
Secondly, the top order is not performing, and also Rohit's absence is exposing him to moving deliveries and new balls a bit more than he used to be.
Sometimes he is facing many criticisms, which could be the reason for his bad performance in cricket.
What is the worst criticism Virat Kohli ever got?
I think every cricketer gets criticized at the start of their career, but being criticized for not being able to play well in IPL and taking the name of the cricketer’s wife is the worst form of criticism in the world. In IPL 2020, when Virat Kohli could not play well, Sunil Gavaskar, the most veteran Indian cricketer, commented that he has played just with the balls of Anushka Sharma in the lockdown. This is the worst criticism anyone could ever make. And even if there is nothing pervert in this, why would anyone have to name anyone’s wife in the midst of a match and that too on a microphone when billions of people are listening?
Will Virat Kohli come back in form?
The players of his caliber have the potential to come back from any bad phase. It is just a problem from his passion so that it will be too easy for him..so have patience and believe in captain Kohli.
He will recoup his form, but when it's impossible to tell. It's just a matter of time that Steve smith is making centuries in India, and Kohli is struggling with his current form. But u can't take his Class back from Kohli. It takes only one innings to come in the form, and we know well what he can do once he gains his form again.
FORM is Temporary, CLASS is permanent.
