    What's the story

    Former Australian cricketer Brad Hogg has highlighted Indian batter Virat Kohli's performance in the 2nd Test against New Zealand.

    He said Kohli appeared to be overthinking and couldn't control his emotions, which resulted in his dismissal in the first innings.

    "He [Virat Kohli] just looked like he was overanalyzing. He looked as if he wasn't in control of his emotions and it showed in the shot that he played when he got out," Hogg said on his YouTube channel.

    Tactical error

    Hogg believes India underestimated New Zealand

    Hogg also stated that the Indian team of underestimating their opponents, which cost them a series of losses.

    "They took New Zealand too lightly and they are trying to play catch-up cricket," he said.

    The former Australian spinner pointed out the change in India's strategy in the Pune Test, where they went for an aggressive approach.

    Strategy shift

    Hogg highlights Kohli's aggression in 2nd Test

    Hogg also emphasized on Kohli's heightened aggression in the second Test.

    "All of a sudden, you saw that mindset shift with Virat Kohli in the first innings of the second Test match. He was more aggressive, the way he strolled out there, the way that he was trying to attack the bowling," Hogg added.

    Crucial game

    Hogg's advice for Kohli and Sharma ahead of 3rd Test

    Looking ahead to the 3rd and final Test at the Wankhede Stadium, Hogg stressed that both Kohli and Rohit Sharma need to up their game.

    "If you look at the technique of Rohit Sharma to Southee, he's going to have to be a little bit tighter. Virat Kohli has to switch on from ball one," he said.

    This advice comes as India hope for redemption after two back-to-back defeats against New Zealand.
