Virat Kohli, who calmed everyone with his aggression, was seen saying “SORRY” in front of Jasprit Bumrah's anger in the live match.

Sorry to Jasprit Bumrah Virat Kohli Catch Drop Video: Senior Indian player Virat Kohli had a bad day in the Perth Test match on Friday (22 November 2024). After being out for just 5 runs in the first innings, Virat Kohli later dropped an easy catch of Marnus Labuschagne. If Kohli had taken advantage of that opportunity, Marnus would have been out for 0 runs. Apart from the missed chances, India performed very well in the evening session on the first day of the Perth Test. Jasprit Bumrah took 3 wickets in his opening spell, putting India in a great position even after the team was bowled out for just 150 in their first innings in Perth.

Let us tell you that if Virat Kohli had taken an easy catch at second slip against Marnus Labuschagne, then only Jasprit Bumrah could have taken the fourth wicket. Earlier in this match, India's batting faltered and the team was all out for just 150 runs. KL Rahul, Nitish Kumar Reddy and Rishabh Pant showed some resistance, but they could not take India to a commendable score. However, India is still expected to perform well in the game on the strength of the bowlers.

Earlier in the match, Virat Kohli's poor form continued as his fortunes failed to change despite returning to his favorite hunting ground, Australia. Kohli was out after scoring just five runs in the first innings of the opening Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy in Perth on Friday, 22 November. Things changed quickly after Kohli was out to an extra-bounce ball from Josh Hazlewood during the morning session at the Optus Stadium. Kohli did not look comfortable while remaining at the crease for 12 balls. Having scored just five runs, he was out in the 13th over to a brilliant ball from Hazlewood.

It is noteworthy that Virat Kohli took a bold decision to bat outside the crease to stop the antics of the Australian bowlers. He intended to play on the front foot, but the extra bounce at the Optus Stadium made things difficult for him. Given Kohli's position outside the off-stump, Hazlewood bowled a short-pitched ball. Kohli found himself in no man's land as the ball rose above him, hit the edge and was comfortably caught by Usman Khawaja.
