يمر فيرات كوهلي بواحدة من أسوأ سنواته، حيث سجل 483 نقطة فقط بمتوسط ضعيف يبلغ 21.95 (الأسوأ على الإطلاق) في جميع الأشكال الثلاثة في عام 2024.
Virat Kohli’s anger reached its boiling point after another flop show in the second Test match against New Zealand in Pune. The Indian batting stalwart, known for his calm demeanour these days, was captured on camera venting his frustration by smashing a water bottle box.
‘Angry Virat Kohli’
The incident occurred after Kohli was dismissed LBW by Mitchell Santner in the second innings. Santner’s delivery, angled into the pads, skidded off the pitch and struck Kohli plumb in front of leg stump. The on-field umpire wasted no time in raising the dreaded finger.
The decision, upheld by the DRS, clearly irked the former Indian captain. While Kohli is known for his intense passion and competitive spirit, his reactions are usually controlled and measured nowadays. As he walked back to the pavilion, he vented his frustration by striking the water cooler with his bat.
This outburst, while unusual for Kohli, highlights the intense pressure he is riding on currently. After all, he is enduring a tough phase currently with the bat, averaging only 21.9 across formats this year – his career-worst.
