Dinesh Karthik on Virat Kohli: Team India faced a 2-1 defeat in the recently concluded India and Australia ODI series. This was India’s first ODI series defeat at home after 2019. This defeat has also raised questions on India’s World Cup preparations. On the other hand, former Indian wicket-keeper batsman Dinesh Karthik has given a big statement regarding Team India’s defeat in the last ODI match played in Chennai. Karthik said that the wicket of Virat Kohli was the turning point of the match.
Kohli’s wicket was the turning point
Talking about the defeat of Team India in Chennai ODI, former Indian wicket-keeper batsman Dinesh Karthik said on Cricbuzz that ‘Virat Kohli’s wicket was the turning point of the match. This had a big impact on India’s run chase and Team India kept losing wickets one after the other. Good partnership between KL Rahul and Virat Kohli. Virat Kohli should also be seen very positive in this. But Rahul got lost in the middle and when he went to play big shots, only 5-6 balls remained. However, when Pandya came for batting, he handled the situation and started scoring runs fast. But things changed a lot from the time Kohli got out. Hardik again started playing carefully. He brought control over his big shots and avoided playing them.
While questioning Virat’s dismissal shot, Karthik said that ‘Virat started really well and played some attractive shots. He was a bit troubled by the spin in the middle but he fought it with style. When he got out, it was Ashton Agar’s last over. He should have delayed that shot. He will be very disappointed thinking that he had a chance to take the team forward and I could not do so.
