Virat Kohli (Photo Source: Getty Images) Indian veteran batsman Virat Kohli was out for 5 runs after playing 12 balls in the first innings of the Perth Test against Australia. He became the victim of Josh Hazlewood in the 17th over of the innings. Hazlewood had bowled a little back of length, Virat did not want to play the ball but due to extra bounce the ball hit the bat and Usman Khawaja took an easy catch in the slips. Hazlewood dismissed Virat for the 10th time in international cricket and the fourth time in Test cricket. Earlier, Kohli had not been able to show anything special in the Test series against Bangladesh and New Zealand. Seeing such performance of Virat in the very first match of Border-Gavaskar Trophy, the tension of the fans has increased. Meanwhile, let us tell you about Virat Kohli’s dismissals in Australia so far through statistics- Virat Kohli was out LBW for the last time in Australia in 2012. Australian cricketer Trent Copeland analyzed Virat Kohli’s pattern of dismissals due to his poor form. He told that, instead of being LBW or clean bowled, Kohli was often given out through other methods. It turned out that, the last time Kohli was out via LBW, he faced 2,037 balls, while he faced 1,578 balls before being clean bowled. According to Wisden, the last bowler to get Virat out LBW was Ben Hilfenhaus in the 2012 Perth Test, while Mitchell Johnson bowled him in the 2014 Brisbane Test. Since then, he has been caught out on 13 out of 14 occasions in Australia, while being run out once during the Test played in Adelaide in 2020. Virat Kohli is good at pulling the ball, due to which Australian bowlers have rarely tried bodyline bowling against him. In previous tours, Australia had bowled only 6 percent of the balls on the stump line. The remaining 94 percent of the balls were placed outside the stumps. Virat Kohli has been out like this for the last 10 times in Australia. venue Year way out fielding position Perth 2024* caught out slip adelaide 2020 caught out Street adelaide 2020 run out , sydney 2019 caught out wicket keeper melbourne 2018 caught out leg alley melbourne 2018 caught out third match Perth 2018 caught out slip Perth 2018 caught out slip adelaide 2018 caught out short leg adelaide 2018 caught out Street

‘He starts his average from zero’ Matthew Hayden ignores Virat Kohli’s recent Test form
Virat was able to score only 93 runs in 6 innings against New Zealand. Matthew Hayden and Virat Kohli (Image Credit- Twitter Recently, former Australian opener Matthew Hayden has given a big statement about former Indian captain Virat Kohli. Ignoring Kohli’s recent Test form, Hayden has said that he is going to perform well in the BGT series. It is noteworthy that for some time now, Kohli’s bat seems to be calm in the biggest format of the game. In the last 12 innings played in Test cricket, Kohli has scored a total of 250 runs at a modest average of 22.72. However, if Team India has to do better in the first match in Perth in the absence of Rohit Sharma, then Kohli will have to come forward and perform. He starts his average from zero: Matthew Hayden Let us tell you that in a recent discussion with Cricket Australia before the start of BGT, Hayden said – Naturally, there should be the hunger that Virat always brings in any kind of competition, and in the history of Test match cricket, it should be more than this. There is no one bigger. He is in the team that has dominated Australia on its own soil for almost a decade. This is an important factor for the place where he has worked really hard. A lot of his impact on the game can be seen not only with the bat in his hand, but also in his confidence in the competition and his fitness level. Hayden further said- So Virat has a lot to play for. Unfortunately, he has not been able to continue his excellent form in recent times. But this season is new and he starts his average from zero. We all know that he is capable of averaging over 50. He is the second greatest player in his country after Sachin Tendulkar. So, I wish him all the best.

To say that Rohit Sharma is finished and Virat Kohli is no longer good is absolutely ridiculous: Mike Hussey
Rohit and Virat scored 91 and 93 runs respectively in the three-match T29 series against New Zealand. Mike Hussey (Image Credit- Twitter X) Before the much-awaited Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) between India and Australia (IND vs AUS) starting from November 22, there is a continuous discussion about the form of senior batsmen Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. In the recently concluded three-match Test series against New Zealand, Rohit and Virat scored 91 and 93 runs respectively. India also had to face 3-0 defeat in the series. After such performances by the current captain and the former captain, the Indian management has been forced to think about the future of both the players in the longest format of the game. On the other hand, amidst all this, a big statement of former Australian cricketer Mike Hussey has come out. Hussey says that it is absolutely ridiculous for cricket pundits to say that Rohit Sharma is finished and Virat Kohli is no longer good. Mike Hussey gave a big statement In a recent conversation with Times of India before the start of BGT, Mike Hussey said – We have seen champion players being dropped from the team many times. Cricket pundits come out and say that Rohit Sharma is finished and Virat Kohli is no longer good. I mean, it’s absolutely ridiculous. He is a legend and a great player. He is a player to be proud of. Hussey further said- If you dismiss them, you will end up having a negative impact on your face, because they will perform well again. They’re so good you don’t want to do that. I think it is foolish to write him off and also to write off the Indian team. Well, now it will be worth watching how these two great players are going to perform against Australia in Australia? However, due to the birth of his second child, captain Rohit will not be able to take part in the first Test match to be held in Perth.

The first match between the two teams is to be played in Perth from 22 November. Meanwhile, Australian rain spoiled the mood of Team India. It rained in Perth on Tuesday (19 November), due to which the team had to cancel the practice session. But this rain did not make any difference to King Kohli. He continued batting in the nets despite the rain. Due to heavy rain, Virat Kohli had to leave the nets in the end The practice session on Tuesday (November 19) was just a routine training day, but Virat Kohli, who is struggling with poor form, wanted to take full advantage of it. He batted diligently despite the rain, even though the entire team had left the field. However, after some time it started raining heavily, after which Virat also had to leave the nets. Journalist Bharat Sundaresan tweeted on his social media handle and wrote, This seems to be the top-6, based on how they played in the nets before practice was halted due to rain. Virat Kohli did not want to stop batting, the rain had increased in intensity and he had no option but to run away with the rest of the team. Looks even more like this is the top 6 based on how they went in the nets before rain halted practice. Virat Kohli wasn’t keen to stop batting even as the rain got heavier before he had no option but to run off with the rest of the team #AusvInd — Bharat Sundaresan (@beastieboy07) November 19, 2024 Virat Kohli did not see a century in both the last Test series against Bangladesh and New Zealand. Since 2020, he has scored runs at an average of only 32 in Tests and has scored only two centuries in the last 60 Test innings. His form declined further in 2024, averaging 22.72 in 6 matches and scoring only one half-century in the last 10 innings. India’s top-order will be like this in Perth Test In the absence of Rohit Sharma, KL Rahul can be seen opening with Yashasvi Jaiswal. Rahul was injured during the practice session in Perth, but right now he looks in good form and is practicing batting. Devdutt Padikkal can be seen at number-3 in place of injured Shubman Gill. Whereas Virat Kohli will bat at number-4.
