“I bowled 24 balls to Virat Kohli”- Jamshed Alam
Virat Kohli, the former captain of India and batting icon, was dismissed twice during the practice session by net bowler Jamshed Alam, ahead of the second and final Test of the series against Bangladesh. Kohli asked him, “Kitne saal ke ho? (How old are you?)” after the event.
“I bowled 24 balls to Virat Kohli. My speed was around 135 kmph and I got him out twice. The practice pitch was helping pacers, though the Kanpur pitch generally helps spinners. Virat Kohli told me, ‘Well bowled bhai, kitne saal ke ho (How old are you)? I told him that I am 22. He replied, mehnat karte raho (keep working hard). I am over the moon after dismissing him,” Alam told NDTV.
The Green Park stadium in Kanpur will host the second Test between Bangladesh and India. It is scheduled to begin at 9 AM IST on Friday, September 27, 2024.
