Las puntuaciones de Virat Kohli en la primera prueba contra Bangladesh fueron 6 y 17 en Chennai.
Virat Kohli’s return to the red-ball cricket didn’t go well. The modern-day master received a massive reception from the Chennai crowd both the time he batted. However, he failed to muster runs under his belt. While he was caught behind in the first innings, Kohli made a huge blunder to ‘give himself out’ in the second innings.
Virat Kohli’s DRS blunder
In a match that has seen India dominate, India’s star batter Virat Kohli made a decision that had fans screaming ‘Why, Kohli why?‘. Kohli, who has been struggling for consistent runs in recent times, was adjudged LBW by the on-field umpire Richard Kettleborough against Mehidy Hasan Miraz. Kohli, seemingly convinced of his innocence, immediately began walking back to the pavilion despite having a chat with his partner Shubman Gill.
However, replays showed that Kohli had indeed got an inside edge before the ball hit his pad. It had everyone get up from their seats. Rohit Sharma was shocked, Shubman Gill was disappointed, while umpire Kettleborough couldn’t hold on to his laugh.
2024: Worst Year for Virat Kohli?
Kohli’s recent LBW dismissal now even worsen his stats in 2024. Can you imagine that he has scored just one half-century this year. It is a different matter that fifty came in the best match possible – the T20 World Cup 2024 Final vs South Africa.
However, Kohli has seriously underperformed this year, averaging a mere 18.76 across formats. This is his worst-ever year since Kohli’s debut in 2008. After 17 innings, the former Indian skipper has scored just 319 runs at a strike rate of 95.79. This now makes the second Test against Bangladesh in Kanpur ever-so important for Kohli.
