Fans on Twitter reacted after India batter Virat Kohli bagged another failure in the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024. The opening batter didn’t get going with the bat in the ongoing semi-final of the tournament against the England National Cricket Team, underway at the Providence Stadium in Guyana.
India was asked to bat first and it was expected that with a big semi-final there, Virat Kohli would bring his A game and stand tall for his team in the match. The opening batter looked scratchy in his innings right from the start as he tried too hard to score quickly.
Virat Kohli tried to be aggressive right from the start but it didn’t pay off as he missed quite a few balls. But he managed to hit a six even after struggling and it seemed that it would get him going but it wasn’t the case as he perished after that as India lost their first wicket.
Virat Kohli perished to Reece Topley in the 3rd over. The pacer bowled a good length delivery that shaped back slightly into the right-hander. Virat Kohli stayed leg-sided and was then looked to shovel it over mid-wicket. He was beaten by the movement and the ball flicked the top of the leg stump.
Virat Kohli managed just 9 runs off 9 balls as India lost their first wicket for 19 runs. This was his first failure in the semi-final of the T20 World Cup. The batter has been sensational in the big games in the tournament. His scores in the semi-final read: 72*(44) vs SA, 2014, 89*(47) vs WI, 2016, 50(40) vs ENG, 2022 and 9(9) vs ENG, 2024
In the ongoing T20 World Cup 2024, the move to open with Virat Kohli hasn’t worked at all for the Indian team. The batter has failed to hit a single half-century in the ongoing tournament. It comes as a surprise because ahead of the tournament, in IPL 2024, he looked in golden touch and scored 741 runs.

Bring back Virat Kohli’s old template & he will play a beautiful on drive on that same delivery rather than doing blind slog . pic.twitter.com/vVSzCH8Cyy

India is doing wrong with Virat Kohli. He truly plays like a king at number 3 spot.
He has won many matches for India playing at number 3 spot.
Over aggressive approach is killing him.
Jaiswal should open with Rohit Sharma.#INDvsENGpic.twitter.com/337ukcByzc

The reasons for Virat Kohli’s struggles:
– Removal from the Number 3 position
– Criticism of his intent
– Pressure to force in blind sloggingNot an excuse, but believe me, they played a huge role. pic.twitter.com/0ZWYoOHoha
