Moving Away On A Good Length And Virat Kohli Edges It Again, WATCH Video
Every batter in the world who plays for a long time ultimately gets found out. The opposition analyses the batter's weak points and tries to exploit them at every chance they get. It is up to the batter how not to get exposed and make changes to one's game.
Virat Kohli has been around on the international scene for a long time now. He has scored everywhere, in every condition, and against every bowling attack and has come out on top.
But in the last two years, it is safe to say he has been found out by the opposition. There is always a similar pattern every time Kohli gets out. One of the classic ways of his dismissal, especially in test cricket, is him nicking the ball from outside off stump to the keeper or slips.
However, this pattern has followed Kohli in the IPL as well. During the Royal Challengers Bangalore's match against Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR), Umesh Yadav was making the new ball talk. Umesh is a fantastic test match bowler and knows how to bowl those classic lines and lengths with the new ball.
In the third over, Umesh Yadav pitched the ball on the good length and it moved slightly away from Kohli, who just like every other time, tried to feel it and nicked it to the keeper. It was a classic Virat Kohli dismissal and nobody could have done it other than Umesh Yadav - the test specialist.
