India vs West Indies: Virat Kohli slips to 7-year-low after 2nd-ball 0 in ODI series finale

India vs West Indies: Virat Kohli finished the 3-match ODI series with 26 runs - the first time he has scored less than 50 in a bilateral ODI series since 2015. The former captain departed for 0 in the series finale on Friday.

Virat Kohli's lean patch in international cricket continues as the former captain got out for a second-ball duck in the 3rd ODI of the ongoing 3-match series against the West Indies at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Kohli was looking distraught as he did not trouble the scorers at all on Friday as his poor run of scores continued.

Virat Kohli was dismissed in the 4th over of the Indian innings on Friday after he edged a delivery that was going down the leg side from Alzarri Joseph. Kohli got a faint edge as he was trying to flick the freebie to the square leg boundary.

Notably, Kohli fell 2 deliveries after captain Rohit Sharma dragged one onto his stumps after scoring 13 runs. India had won the toss and opted to bat in the final ODI after having sealed an unbeatable 2-0 lead in the series but their top-order was jolted by West Indies pacers. India lost Rohit, Kohli and comeback man Shikhar Dhawan inside the first 10 overs of the innings.

Kohli's no-show on Friday adds to the concerns surrounding his form in international cricket. While the wait for his 71st hundred has extended to more than 2 years, Kohli managed just 26 runs across 3 innings in the ODI series against the West Indies.

This is also his lowest tally in an ODI series since 2015 wherein he managed 49 against Bangladesh in Bangladesh.

Kohli had gotten out for a 4-ball 8 after an uncharacteristically irresponsible knock in the first ODI and looked good in the 2nd ODI before getting out for 18.
