**Adelaide, Australia:** Indian cricket star Virat Kohli’s promising start in the second Test against Australia at the Adelaide Oval was cut short by a brilliant delivery from Mitchell Starc. Kohli, known for his prowess at the Adelaide Oval, managed only 7 runs before being dismissed in the first innings.
Starc’s delivery, a short-of-length ball, proved too challenging for Kohli, who initially intended to defend but changed his mind at the last moment, attempting to leave the ball. However, his bat edge picked up the ball, which flew straight to Steve Smith at second slip, resulting in a clean catch. The dismissal was a significant blow to India’s innings. Video footage of the incident quickly went viral on social media. This follows Kohli’s impressive century in the first Test at Perth.
