Virat Kohli suffered a rare failure on Day 2 of the ongoing fourth Test against Englandon Friday. Kohli was sent back for a duck by Ben Stokesas the India skipper edged one straight to Ben Foakes behind the stumps. Stokes had a bowled a back of length delivery that jumped off the surface and took the edge of Kohli's on its way through to the keeper. The Indian skipper stared at the pitch before walking back to the pavilion. Former England captain Michael Vaughan used Kohli's gesture as an opportunity to continue his fun banter on the Ahmedabad pitch and he tweeted "Surely that wasn't Virat staring at the Pitch ... !!!!! #INDvENG."
Vaughan was among the few former cricketers who had criticised the pitches used in the ongoing four-match Test series between India and England.
The talks surrounding the surface grew further after the third Test (day-night Test) ended inside two days.
