On the opening day of the first Test match between India and Bangladesh, the legendary Indian batsman Virat Kohli was dismissed early. Hasan Mahmud, a pacer, had already taken out Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill before Kohli fell into his trap. There have been previous instances where Kohli attempted to play a drive that wasn’t off. In a commentary, Tamim Iqbal claimed that ‘dismissal made the analyst look like magician’
Virat Kohli was dismissed just at the score of 6 from the game.
‘Dismissal That Makes The Analyst Look Like A Magician’
“Virat’s coming back to Test cricket after a while, so he wants to build back by feeling the ball. It happens to everyone. We have all played the game. We understand that, at times, you want to feel the ball. And I think that particular area where he got out, he has been dismissed a lot of times. This was a dismissal that makes the analyst look like a magician. It was definitely a very well-planned delivery, and Virat fell for it,” Tamim said on Sports18
