IND vs AUS WTC Final 2023: India's pursuit of a massive 444-run target in the WTC 2023 Final suffered a significant setback as star batsman Virat Kohli fell victim to Scott Boland's dismissal. Steve Smith's incredible catch to dismiss Kohli added to the disappointment of Team India fans, making the already challenging chase even more difficult for the team.
Kohli dismissed for 49 in final
After playing defensively for the majority of the initial 30 minutes of the session, Kohli decided to go on the offensive against Boland's wide delivery. However, his ambitious drive resulted in a thick edge. Steve Smith showcased his sharp skills by completing a fine catch in the slip cordon, leading to Kohli's departure at 49 runs. Despite being in excellent form on the evening of day 4, Kohli failed to extend his innings significantly and fell early on day 5. Two deliveries later, Ravindra Jadeja also nicked the ball, resulting in a catch for Alex Carey and adding to India's woes.
After Kohli's dismissal, the cameras turned to his wife, Anushka Sharma, who was seated in the crowd. Her expression of shock and confusion mirrored that of the spectators and fans watching the match, as it seemed like a crucial wicket had fallen early in a significant day of play. Smith's secure catch on the thick edge only reinforced the sense of impending challenges for India. Now, a variety of reactions have gone viral on social media, with one of them being Anushka Sharma's heartbreaking reaction.
