Virat Kohli India vs Bangladesh: In the second ODI between India and Bangladesh, Virat Kohli was seen opening due to Rohit Sharma’s injury. Rohit was injured while fielding in the second over of the first innings and had to be taken out for a scan. After this, he did not come to field again and Kohli was made to open. This was the first time after 2014 when Kohli got down to open, but he could not do anything amazing.
Before this match, Kohli last opened the innings on January 28, 2014 in an ODI against New Zealand in Hamilton. Even in that match, Kohli’s bat did not work and he was dismissed after scoring only three runs. Before the match against Bangladesh, Kohli has started the innings six times in ODI cricket. Kohli made his debut in One Day International while opening. Despite playing seven innings as an opener, Kohli has been able to score only one half-century.
India lost second consecutive ODI
As an opener, Kohli could not get India off to a good start and the team got the first blow in the form of Kohli at seven runs. Chasing the target of 272 runs, India lost four wickets early, but then Shreyas Iyer and Akshar Patel made India comeback by scoring half-centuries. Injured Rohit also showed courage and decided to bat at number nine. Rohit also played a stormy inning of 51 runs in 28 balls, but could not win his team.
