IND vs SA: Virat Kohli Would Be Very Frustrated To Get Out In That Fashion, Says Shaun Pollock

Former South African cricketer Shaun Pollock feels that Virat Kohli would be very frustrated to lose his wicket during Day 1 of India vs South Africa 1st Test. The Indian skipper lost his wicket to Lungi Ngidi after scoring 35 runs.

Virat Kohli arrived on the crease after one-down Cheteshwar Pujara lost his wicket for a duck on his first ball. Kohli got off to a good start, reaching 35 runs off 94 balls. He also hit 4 boundaries during his knock and built up an 82-run stand with KL Rahul. However, he lost his wicket to a wide outswinger delivery of Lungi Ngidi, which went straight in the hands of first slip Wiaan Mulder.

Virat Kohli Got To Be Really Disappointed On His Dismissal: Shaun Pollock

While speaking about Kohli’s dismissal on Cricbuzz, cricket commentator Shaun Pollock said Virat Kohli will be really disappointed at the way he lost his wicket and would be frustrated in the fashion he got out.

“Looking at his dismissal, he’s got to be really, really disappointed. He looked in such good touch; he looked so motivated; his feet were moving nicely. and he was getting in really strong positions. To have chased that delivery on 35, almost when he was in set and looked like he was going to get a big score, I think he must be sitting at the hotel pretty frustrated at the fact that he got out in that fashion,” Shaun Pollock said.
