Virat Kohli priceless reaction, IND vs AUS: The fourth Test match between Team India and Australia is taking place at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. Team India are leading the series by 2-1.
Moreover, they have also retained the Border Gavaskar Trophy for the fourth time. However, Australia dictated the terms in the third Test match and won the game.
Australia have qualified for the ICC World Test Championship Final with a win over India in the Indore Test. On the other hand, India will have to produce a winning result anyhow in the fourth Test to qualify for the WTC Final.
Talking about the fourth Test match, Australian interim Test captain Steve Smith won the toss and chose to bat first. The batters found it literally easy to score runs on the batting surface.
Australia’s opening batsman, Usman Khawaja played one of the best innings of his cricketing career. The southpaw made use of the conditions to better effect.
Usman Khawaja went on to become only the fourth Australian Test opener in the history of Australian cricket to have scored a 150-plus score in India.
IND vs AUS: Virat Kohli left astonished after the dismissal of Usman Khawaja
Usman Khawaja was the pick of the batters for Australia in the first innings. He scored 180 runs to his name with the help of 18 boundaries during his stay at the crease.
Post the Tea season, Axar Patel provided a breakthrough by dismissing Usman Khawaja. Virat Kohli was left astonished after the southpaw’s dismissal.
Watch the video below:-
Axar Patel bowled a straight delivery to Usman Khawaja. As it turned out, the southpaw tried to nudge the ball towards the on-side.
Meanwhile, Khawaja misjudged the line of the delivery and was struck right in front of the stumps for a leg before wicket. However, the umpire was not interested in the loud appeal made by the Indians.
Cheteshwar Pujara and wicketkeeper KS Bharat had a short discussion before Pujara signalled for Decision Review System. Meanwhile, the review showed that the ball would have perhaps hit the stumps.
Virat Kohli actually didn’t believe that Usman Khawaja was out at the time. However, as the replays of the large screen showed otherwise, Virat Kohli gave a priceless reaction.
