India vs Bangladesh - 319 In 17 Innings: Virat Kohli Hits Eight-Year Low After Another Sub-Par Show

Star India batter Virat Kohli's form dip continued as he failed to fire in the first Test against Bangladesh held at Chennai. In both innings of the Test, Kohli delivered poor scores of 6 and 17. While in the first innings, he chased an outside off stump delivery by Hasan Mahmud, in the second innings, he fell victim to a wrong leg-before-wicket decision. Having chosen to not review it, the Ultraedge discovered the bat making contact with the ball, which would have ruled Virat not out had he opted for a review.
