Former Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli’s poor run of form continues, and he was dismissed for a rare golden duck on Tuesday against Lucknow Super Giants in Mumbai.
Kohli walked out in the first over itself after Anuj Rawat’s early dismissal and off his first ball tried to guide Dushmantha Chameera’s short-delivery through off-side but got caught at backward point by Deepak Hooda off the final ball of the opening over.
Kohli was understandably stunned with the dismissal and could not do much more than smile at his bad luck.
It was the fourth time when Kohli got dismissed on a golden duck in IPL as the last time was in 2017 against KKR when Nathan Coulter-Nile got him out on the first ball.
vs MI 2008 (Ashish Nehra)
vs PBKS 2014 (Sandeep Sharma)
vs KKR 2017 (Nathan Coulter-Nile)
vs LSG 2022 (Dushmantha Chameera)
In the 7 innings Kohli has played in the IPL this season so far, he has a highest score of 48 after starting with a 41 not out against Punjab.
