Indian team’s experienced batsman Virat Kohli is seen struggling on the Australia tour. Kohli, who is aiming to play the 2027 ODI World Cup, has been out without opening an account in two consecutive matches against Australia. This is the first time that Kohli has been out for duck in two consecutive matches in his ODI career. Kohli’s bat plays very well in Adelaide, but this time here too he could not play a big innings.

Batting first, India lost two wickets in the powerplay itself. Xavier Bartlett gave a double blow to India in his second over. He first got captain Shubman Gill caught by Mitchell Marsh and then showed the way to the pavilion by dismissing Kohli LBW. On Bartlett’s appeal, the umpire gave Kohli out, but Virat wanted to take DRS. However, Rohit standing at the other end advised him not to take DRS as he knew that Kohli was out. Virat listened to the former captain and returned towards the pavilion.

The fans were quite disappointed with Kohli’s dismissal, but the way he accepted the greetings of the spectators by shaking hands while returning to the dressing room attracted everyone’s attention. This video is going viral on social media in which Kohli is greeting the audience by raising his hands while returning to the pavilion after getting out. People are linking this to Kohli’s retirement. The discussion has intensified on social media whether Kohli has hinted at retiring from ODIs as well?
