Sanjay Manjrekar’s tweet is becoming very viral after Kohli got out on such a common ball. Manjrekar termed Virat’s shot as the worst shot of his career.
New Delhi: Virat Kohli flopped in the first innings of the second Test match being played against New Zealand. Kohli was shown the way to the pavilion by Mitchell Santner by clean bowling him. Virat got out after scoring just one run after facing 9 balls. Kohli lost his wicket on a full toss ball from Santner’s hand, due to which the star batsman of Team India was trolled heavily on social media. Meanwhile, Sanjay Manjrekar’s tweet is becoming very viral after Kohli got out on such a common ball. Manjrekar termed Virat’s shot as the worst shot of his career.
Manjrekar’s tweet on Kohli’s wicket:
Actually, Virat Kohli had faced 8 balls and was looking for the first boundary of his innings. Virat tried to hit a big shot against Mitchell Santner, but he could not understand the line of the ball. Kohli was deceived by the almost full toss ball from the Kiwi spinner and the ball went between his bat and pad and hit the leg stump.

Virat himself appeared quite unhappy with his shot. After Kohli’s wicket, Sanjay Manjrekar tweeted, “Oh dear! Virat will know that he has just played the worst shot of his career to get out. Got to feel for him…coz as always he came out with solid & honest intent.”

Virat Kohli struggling for runs:
Virat Kohli is struggling badly for runs in Test cricket. In the year 2024, King Kohli’s bat has looked completely silent. Not a single century has come from Kohli’s bat this year. Forget about centuries, Virat has been able to score only one half-century this year. Kohli’s batting average in his favorite format has dropped below 50 for the first time. Even in the Test series played against Bangladesh, Kohli could not show anything special with the bat.
