Virat Kohli’s DRS Debacle: A Shocking Mistake
Virat Kohli’s return to Test cricket was marred by a disappointing performance in the India vs Bangladesh series opener. Despite receiving a hero’s welcome from the Chennai crowd, Kohli failed to convert his starts into substantial scores.
In the second innings, Kohli made a shocking blunder that left fans scratching their heads. He was given out LBW by the on-field umpire, and despite having a chance to review the decision, Kohli chose to walk back to the pavilion. Replays showed that Kohli had clearly edged the ball before it hit his pad, leaving everyone stunned.

A Year of Struggles
Kohli’s recent LBW dismissal further highlighted his struggles in 2024. With just one half-century scored this year, his average across formats is a dismal 18.76. This is his worst performance since his debut in 2008.
The Pressure Mounts
The second Test in Kanpur is now a crucial match for Kohli. He needs to step up and deliver a strong performance to regain his confidence and form. With the Indian team in a strong position, Kohli’s contributions will be vital to secure a series victory.
