In the last match, Kohli was dismissed in a similar fashion off Adil Rashid’s delivery.
Virat Kohli falls to Adil Rashid once again in a similar manner during the IND vs ENG 3rd ODI at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad.
On the last ball of the 19th over of the first innings, Adil Rashid bowled a beautifully flighted delivery on the stumps. The ball pitched around middle and leg, forcing Virat to play. It had lovely drift and a slight turn away, leading to a gentle outside edge that went straight to Salt, who took a clean catch.
Virat didn’t even wait for the umpire’s decision before walking off. A side-on replay shows that his bat was well ahead of his pad, though it wasn’t a big stride forward. Maybe he could have controlled the shot better if he hadn’t pushed so far ahead of the pad.
