Xtra Time Web Desk: Virat Kohli’s nightmare doesn’t seem to be over as the star batter was out the first ball yet again in the ongoing IPL season against Sunrisers Hyderabad at Wankhede stadium on Sunday. The former RCB captain now has three ducks to his name in IPL 2022. Kohli was out to Sunrisers Hyderabad left arm spinner Jagadeesha Suchith.
Sunrisers skipper Kane Williamson handed the ball to Suchith to bowl the first over. The left arm spinner from Karanataka dragged the first ball onto the pads which Kohli tried to flick, but instead ended up giving a simple catch to Williamson standing at short mid-wicket. Quite understandably, the 33-year-old looked very disappointed with himself after the dismissal.
Suchith himself looked in a state of shock as he got the wicket of Kohli off the first ball. The spinner from Mysore was playing his second match in the IPL this season. He replaced an injured Shreyas Gopal. The spinner joined a list of bowlers who dismissed Kohli for a duck in the cash rich league.
