Virat Kohli has lost his charm in red-ball cricket, which was pretty evident on the last day of the 4th Test match. From being the chase master to getting out on outside off stump balls continuously, Kohli has formed a weakness in the game. He just managed to score five runs in the important game going on against Australia MCG. India have to chase a score of 340 runs, with three prolific batters back in the pavilion.
While the bowlers made a solid comeback in the game by restricting Australia under 400 runs. The batters failed miserably in the game, losing three quick wickets on just 33 runs. Rohit Sharma was the first man to depart, followed by Rahul on a duck and Kohli on one run. It wasn't expected from the three best batters of the team.
Now, the pressure is back on Nitish Reddy, Risbhabh Pant, Jaiswal and Ravindra Jadeja to either help India win the game or draw the Test match. Its a better option than losing the game and the final spot of the WTC finals.

Jasprit Bumrah claims third fifer of BGT 2024
India's best bowler, Jasprit Bumrah claimed a five-wicket haul in the second innings of the fourth Test match against Australia. He did the best throughout the innings, dismissing the best batters of the team. Nevertheless, the start was with Sam Konstas wicket and ended up with Nathan Lyon.
With Lyon's wicket, Bumrah claimed the third fifer in the series, making the country proud. He did everything he could to save the team and now everything depends upon the batters as to how they proceed in the game. By lunch, India's score was 33-3. While the situation looks concerning, some talented batters are still there who can pull off a win from here.
