Anushka Stunned, Athiya Distraught As Virat Disappoints In MCG Test - Watch

New Delhi: Virat Kohli‘s disappointing form continued on Day 5 of the fourth Test against Australia in Melbourne on Monday. Dismissed for just 5 by Mitchell Starc, Kohli once again fell to a delivery outside the off-stump, edging it to Usman Khawaja in the slips for an easy catch. The reactions of Kohli’s wife Anushka Sharma and teammate KL Rahul’s wife Athiya Shetty, who were present at the match, have gone viral on social media following the dismissal.

After Jasprit Bumrah completed his five-wicket haul by dismissing Nathan Lyon, ending Australia’s second innings at 234 in 83.4 overs, India navigated the first hour of their chase without losing a wicket, despite facing tough questions from Australia’s bowlers.

But a double-wicket maiden from skipper Pat Cummins and Mitchell Starc dismissing Virat Kohli at the stroke of lunch meant Australia finished the session strongly. With Yashasvi Jaiswal unbeaten on 14 off 83 balls and Rishabh Pant to join after lunch, the game remains finely balanced, though leaning in Australia’s favor.
