[Saba Sports News] India while facing Afghanistan in the third T20I of the ongoing series lost their opener Yashasvi Jaiswal early.
Coming to bat in the second over of the innings at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium, Bengaluru, Virat Kohli was given a raucous welcome by the crowd at his IPL home.
However, soon after, the decibels dropped as Kohli departed back to the pavilion for a golden duck.
The 36-year-old pulled the ball but did not do it with the middle of his bat as the catch got taken a mid-off on a Fareed Ahmad delivery.
The reaction says it all 💔🥺
