'Long walk back to the pavilion' is a famous expression said when a batter gets out cheaply. It expresses what batters feel when getting out disappointedly early in the inning and the distance just seems longer from the pitch to the pavilion. For years, it seemed that it was just an old expression, but today, we all saw it.
Virat Kohli's disastrous run of form continued as he got a golden duck against Sunrisers Hyderabad. While opening the inning, Kohli faced the ball of the inning. SRH captain Kane Williamson wanted to make use of Kohli's long going weakness against slow left-arm spin and he gave the ball to Jagadeesh Suchith.
On the very first ball of the match, Kohli tried to flick the ball towards the mid-wicket region but the ball wasn't completely grounded and went straight to Williamson, who took an easy catch.
