Overall, Virat Kohli could score only 18 runs in both the innings of the Pune Test match.
The Test series against New Zealand has been no less than a nightmare for Team India so far. The first test match was 8 wickets and now Team India had to face defeat by 113 runs in the second match. When Virat Kohli came to bat on the third day, he gave hope of victory in the Indian camp by hitting some good shots. But when he returned to the dressing room after getting out, his anger was on top of the sky.
Virat Kohli’s anger reaches sky high
While returning to the dressing room, Virat Kohli got angry and hit the ice box hard with his bat. In this video going viral on social media, Virat Kohli was going towards the dressing room after getting out. Then some fans said ‘hard luck’ and then Virat hit the box full of water bottles with force with the bat. Kohli could score only one run in the first innings of the Pune Test, while in the second innings he was out after scoring only 17 runs.
Talking about the match, on the third day, New Zealand had advanced its innings with a score of 198/5, but the Indian bowlers had all out the Kiwi team within the next 57 runs. In this way India got the target of 359 runs in the fourth innings. Virat Kohli came to bat in the fourth innings when India had lost the second wicket at the score of 96.
There Team India needed a big partnership, but due to continuous fall of wickets the team was on the backfoot. From Rohit Sharma to Virat Kohli, from Gill to Sarfaraz, everyone flopped with the bat in the second innings of the Pune Test and could not contribute anything.
Despite losing two consecutive Tests against New Zealand, the Indian team remains at the first position in the World Test Championship table. India’s winning percentage is 62.82, but Team India’s two consecutive defeats have made its path to the finals difficult. Australia, which is in second place, has a percentage of 62.50. India will have to win every match from here to reach the WTC final.
