Indian cricket team star batter Virat Kohli's horrible form at the T20 World Cup 2024 continues as he was dismissed for a duck during the Super 8 match against Australia on Monday. Kohli faced just five deliveries before he completely miscued a shot off the bowling of Josh Hazlewood and the catch was completely comfortably by Tim David at wide mid-on. Kohli has not performed well in the competition after he was chosen as Rohit Sharma's opening partner with just 66 runs in 6 matches. This was his fourth single-digit score of this year's competition and social media was abuzz following his dismissal.

"We are going to bowl first. Looks a belter, it looks lovely. It's a quarter final, looking forward to it, big challenge against India. We have had ourselves in this situation before, every game is a must-win now. We got an experienced group, a great staff. Starc comes in for Agar," Marsh said at the toss.
Pull is not everyone's cup of tea.

"We would have fielded first as well, looks a bit sticky. We wanted to chase. We know what exactly we are doing, will try to do our best. I hope it doesn't change much. The overhead conditions also matter in this part of the world. We have adapted well, hopefully another game where we put up a show. Every game matters in this tournament, nothing changes. We are playing the same team," Rohit said.
