Virat Kohli Wicket: In the fifth test match being played against Australia in Sydney, the Indian team has once again been disappointed by its star batsman Virat Kohli. The chase master has once again fallen prey to a ball going outside. Virat has been out in this manner in the entire series and when he was watching his wicket going in Sydney, disappointment was visible on his face and he appeared angry with himself.

On Saturday, Kohli was in the news as the captain of the team as Jasprit Bumrah reportedly went to a medical facility to undergo scans for a back problem. The star batsman stepped in as the action captain and orchestrated Australia's collapse in Sydney which saw the hosts collapse from 162/6 to 181 all-out. India took a 4-run lead before tea. In the second innings, the visitors got off to a great start thanks to Yashasvi Jaiswal.

Bowland became the victim again

However, Boland came back into the game and dismissed both the openers, forcing Kohli to join Shubman Gill in the middle order. The star batsman looked solid initially, but Boland eventually dismissed Kohli for the fourth time in the series. The star batsman was dismissed for 6 runs off 12 balls. This will end Kohli's series on a disappointing note as he was dismissed 7 times out of 8 times on balls outside the off-stump. In the first innings, Kohli was caught at slip by Beau Webster off Boland for 17 runs off 69 balls.

Kohli's tour was bad

For Kohli, who is known for his brilliant performance in Australia, the 2024-25 Border-Gavaskar Trophy has been an unforgettable trophy. The star batsman started well in Perth, where he scored a brilliant century in the second innings, leading India to victory in the first Test. However, since then Kohli has struggled to find any kind of consistency. His next best score in the series has been 36 runs in the Boxing Day Test and has crossed the double-digit mark only 3 times overall. Kohli ended the series with 190 runs in 9 innings at an average of 23.75.
