Came out to bat at number three after 8 years, luck remained angry even after 114 innings, out on zero again after 34 months

New Delhi. Team India’s stalwart Chinnaswamy collapsed in front of New Zealand’s bowlers at the stadium. The accounts of 5 Indian batsmen did not even open in the first innings of the first test match. The players who were out on zero include star players like Virat Kohli, Sarfaraz Khan, KL Rahul and Ravindra Jadeja. After the dismissal of captain Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli was sent to bat at number three. Virat came out to bat at number three in the Test after 8 years and 114 innings. But fate betrayed him again. Kohli could not open his account again in Test cricket after 34 months. He was last out on zero in the year 2021 too after landing at number three. Even at that time, the New Zealand team was in front of him, which had returned him to the pavilion on a personal score of zero in Mumbai in December.

By the way, Virat Kohli’s record at M Chinnaswamy Stadium has not been good. Earlier, Kohli’s batting average in this stadium was only 16. Kohli last batted at number three in 2016. After 114 innings, he came out to bat at number three in the Test. Earlier, Virat had scored 536 runs at an average of 31.52 in 19 international innings played on this ground. This is the home ground of Royal Challengers Bangalore in IPL. In this sense, this was also Virat’s home ground in a way, but in international cricket, his bat always remains silent on this ground.
