Virat Kohli: The king of cricket was out in the IND vs ENG match just after 9 runs in the second semi-final of the T20 World Cup 2024. Virat looked jagged, unassured, and in no control, continuing his unproductive side in the semi-final match. Kohli was scoring at run-a-ball before getting a stronghold by England’s Reece Topley. The sound of the timber was met with the pin drop silence as India once again lost their first wicket quickly as Kohli made a long way back to the pavilion.
Virat Kohli was run out when he tried to attack Reece Topley, Who blew a length ball and hit the top of the leg stump. Virat Kohli had a six, figuring out to give another one in this ball.
This wicket by Reece Topley made the stunned shock in the field for the Indian cricket fans. Kholi was perturbed that if there is any scope of improvement, it can only be implemented in the next game. Provided India gets through it.
Moreover, the largest withdrawal was the visuals emerging from the dressing room. Sitting around Jasprit Burmrah and Ravindra Jadeja, Koli was consoled by Rahul Dravid. The Indian coach rested his hand on Kohli’s knee in consolation.
He is the highest run-scorer in the ICC World Cup and completed his eighty-centuries in international matches.
Kohli has been giving poor performances in the last five matches, he was run out for 1 run against Ireland, 4 against Pakistan and 2 against Australia, USA, and Afghanistan as well. He just scored 37 off 28 balls against Bangladesh, where he has even better innings.
During Rohit Sharma’s innings, he is the cricketer who scored 5000 runs in international matches. With six fours, Rohit kept India’s scorecard marking off and their intent could be ascertained by the fact that on a much more difficult pitch, India finished the Power Play with 46 runs.
Kholi seemed unhappy and his frustration was pretty clear on his face. He shared disappointment with other batsmen like Ravindra Jadeja and Jasprit Burmrah.
