Indian cricket team star batter Virat Kohli had a horrible outing during the first Test match against Bangladesh in Chennai. Virat registered scores of 6 and 17 as Hasan Mahmud dismissed him in the first innings and Bangladesh spinner Mehidy Hasan Miraz took his wicket in the second innings. All eyes are on the batter to bounce back in the second Test in Kanpur but he suffered a major setback at the nets ahead of the game. According to Indian Express, he faced 15 deliveries against fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah in the nets and he was 'out' four times. The fourth ball from Bumrah crashed into his pads and Bumrah shouted “saamne laga hai (You are plumb)” - a statement that Kohli acknowledged.
Two balls later, Kohli ended up getting an outside edge while chasing a ball outside his off-stump and he was foxed twice in a row as the fast bowler shifted his line to the middle and leg stumps.
“Aakhiri wala toh short leg ka catch tha (The short leg could have catched the last one),” Bumrah said.
Kohli moved to the other net where the spin trio Ravichandran Ashwin, Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel were bowling but his struggles did not end.
Kohli tried to take Jadeja on but while attempting to play an inside-out shot, the star batter missed the ball completely three times. The report further claimed that this left Kohli 'agitated'.
