Indian cricketer Virat Kohli’s lean patch continued in ongoing India’s tour of England on Thursday, July 14 at the Lord’s Cricket Stadium in London. He was dismissed cheaply for sixteen runs in the second ODI against England. Virat Kohli has not been able to play an impactful inning so far on the tour. He failed to contribute much in the Test as well as the T20I series.
In the second ODI, Virat Kohli was looking uncomfortable against David Willey and finally succumbed to the pressure. He nicked a good length outside off stump delivery to wicket-keeper Jos Buttler in the twelfth over of the second innings. Kohli chased the delivery away from his body to defend but ended up edging it due to a bit of extra bounce. He managed sixteen runs from his 25-deliveries stay at the crease.
Interestingly, a Twitter user had made an accurate prediction of Virat Kohli’s score before the right-handed batter’s dismissal. At 10.00 PM, @Hitting_Middle wrote on his Twitter handle, “Kolly 16 (25) incoming.” The accurate prediction left the fans amused.
Kolly 16 (25) incoming 👍
