After 12 years, Virat's condition was so bad in the Test, that this big incident happened in the Adelaide Test

The first match of the Border Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 was played in Perth. In this match, a brilliant century was seen from the bat of Virat Kohli. With this, he ended the long wait for a century. But he could not repeat this performance in the Adelaide Test. Virat Kohli flopped in both the innings of the Pink Ball Test. Let us tell you, Virat Kohli's figures at the Adelaide Oval ground in Adelaide are very good, but this time Virat's bat remained silent in Adelaide.

Virat was in such a bad condition in the Adelaide test.

The day-night test match was no less than a nightmare for Virat Kohli. He could not stay on the crease for long in both the innings. In the first innings of this match, Virat Kohli played only 8 balls and returned to the pavilion after scoring 7 runs. In the first innings, he was caught out by Mitchell Starc at the hands of Steve Smith. Whereas, in the second innings, he became the victim of Scott Boland. In this innings too, Virat could face only 21 balls and lost his wicket after scoring 11 runs.

Virat Kohli scored only 18 runs in both the innings of this match. This is Virat Kohli's lowest score in a Test match in Australia in the last 12 years. That means he scored more than 18 runs in every Test match played in Australia in the last 12 years. But this time Virat could not do anything special. Due to this poor performance, Virat Kohli's average in Test format has also declined. Virat's average in Tests has now become 47.72. Before this match, his average in Tests was 48.13.

The threat of defeat looms over Team India

Only 2 days have passed in the Adelaide Test and Team India is completely behind. In this match, Team India won the toss and decided to bat first, but they could score only 180 runs in their first innings. In response, Australia scored 337 runs in their first innings and gained a lead of 157 runs. Till the time of writing the news, Team India had lost 5 wickets for just 105 runs in their second innings, so it has become more difficult for them to make a comeback in the match.
