Such nice insights. I think anyone who has watched Kohli play between overs 6 to 15 will not include him in their T20 line-up. It's a no risk, no reward equation. Scoring 40 from 35 balls is considered as good by many when compared with 25 of 15 because of the bias towards average.

Very well-written article, been frustrated that even commentary panels and experts don't seem to realize or point out that T20 batting is being on the conservative side. However, Kohli is one of the most skillful batters in world cricket, I would phrase it as Kohli should be changing his approach rather than dropping him from the team. Also, V.Chakvarthy is the only spinner that can be trusted to perform on 180-190 run pitches. Jadeja/Sundar can't be relied upon imo.
