Another mistake of Virat Kohli disappointed in Perth Test, Hazlewood took his victim for the 10th time.

The Border-Gavaskar series between India and Australia has started at the Optus Stadium in Perth. Indian captain Jasprit Bumrah won the toss and decided to bat first, which proved correct considering the pitch. However, the Australian bowlers soon picked up the pace and started giving blow after blow to the Indian batsmen. Team India lost its five wickets for 59 runs, and a big name in it was Virat Kohli, who was out after scoring just five runs.

Virat Kohli: Same mistake again and again

After his brilliant performance in the practice match, it was expected that Virat Kohli would play a strong innings in the Perth Test against Australia. But he disappointed again. Virat Kohli came to the crease after the dismissal of Devdutt Padikkal, and he tried to play cautiously in the beginning. However, batting while standing outside the crease proved costly for him.

Pujara told Virat’s mistake

Cheteshwar Pujara, who was commentating during the match, commented on Virat’s mistake. He said that standing outside the crease, Virat did not guess the swing of the ball correctly and this became the main reason for his dismissal. Pujara also said that it is more important for any batsman to stay in the crease, so that he can protect himself from bounce.

Hazlewood dismissed Virat for the 10th time

Virat Kohli was caught in the slips by fast bowler Josh Hazlewood while trying to bowl a short pitched ball. This catch was taken by Usman Khawaja. This was the 10th time in Test cricket that Hazlewood dismissed Virat. Hazlewood has now become the Australian bowler who has dismissed Virat the most number of times. Earlier, England’s James Anderson and Moeen Ali had also dismissed Virat 10 times each.

This mistake of Virat once again proved that Indian batsmen have to play very cautiously against Australian bowlers.
