Virat Kohli displayed real aggression from the start against Bangladesh on Saturday (June 22) in India‘s second T20 World Cup 2024 Super 8 match at Antigua’s Sir Vivian Richards Stadium. The dynamic Indian batter showed no mercy when Najmul Hossain Shanto introduced Shakib Al Hasan into the attack before the second over of India’s innings, hitting the star Bangladeshi all-rounder for a massive 87-meter six.
After Najmul Hossain Shanto opted to bowl first, Shakib delivered a tossed-up ball to Kohli. The former India captain seized the opportunity and stylishly hit it over wide long-on for a towering six. Given Kohli’s recent struggles in the T20 World Cup 2024, this shot was crucial for him.
Tanzim Hasan dismisses Virat Kohli in the IND vs BAN T20 World Cup 2024 Super Eight match
Bangladesh’s young pacer Tanzim Hasan Sakib brought a crucial blow to Team India inside the T20 World Cup 2024 Super Eight match by way of brushing off Virat Kohli. The incident took place in Antigua on Saturday, June 22.
The right-arm bowler knocked over the stumps as Kohli stepped out to hit over the top. The dismissal happened in the ninth over during Tanzim’s second spell after he conceded only six runs in his first.
The former Indian captain was in good form, having hit a six in the previous over by Rishad Hossain. Tanzim’s delivery, likely a slower off-cutter, caught Kohli early in his shot, resulting in the stumps being disturbed.
