Sri Lanka Vs India 2017 – Video: Virat Kohli Dismissed Off A Bouncer Again

It seems Indian skipper Virat Kohli’s persisting problems against the short pitched stuff are far from dying down. The batting beast was a victim of the chin music not too long ago in the Caribbean, as he had a tough time facing the towering Jason Holder. That very issue has come back to haunt him in Sri Lanka as well.

 

On the opening day of the series at Galle, India were well in control of the game with coming back man Shikhar Dhawan denting the hosts with a career best score of 190, an innings which came better than run a ball. Once the southpaw was dismissed, in walked Kohli, amidst great hopes on a flat deck.

 

Pacer Nuwan Pradeep was bound to test Kohli with the short pitched stuff, given his ability to bang the ball in short. The expected soon happened as Pradeep banged one right in the middle of the pitch.

 

Kohli, being in an uncertain position, looked to pull the short ball, rather than ducking down and ignoring the delivery. That proved to be a fatal error as while swivelling across, the Indian skipper got a faint edge of his willow, which went straight into the hands of the wicketkeeper, Niroshan Dickwella.

 

Despite the umpire giving it not out, the Sri Lankans were confident and went for a review. The replays seemed inconclusive however, ultra edge did detect a spike. Based on the questionable evidence, Kohli was given out, which led to another low score for him.

 

Below is the video of Kohli getting out:
