Virat Kohli | 1st test SA vs IND

South Africa vs India: In the ongoing 1st test match at SuperSports Park, Centurion, India put on a brilliant display after winning the toss & opting to bat first. Opener Mayank Agarwal got out after scoring 60 runs while KL Rahul remained unbeaten on 122. However, Virat Kohli would be ecstatic with himself as he yet again gifted his wicket after getting a good start. 

In the 69th over of the match, being bowled by South African's sole wicket-taker of the day Lungi Ngidi, the bowler bowled the second delivery way outside off stump and short of length. The delivery was so far outside off that it'd have been given a wide ball in limited-overs cricket. 

Kohli chased the line of the delivery and threw his bat in an effort to drive it through the off-side. The ball caught the bat's outside edge and went straight to Mulder at the second slip who made no mistake. Kohli was dismissed after scoring 34 runs off 94 balls with 4 boundaries on a bowling friendly pitch.
