Virat Kohli 54(63)
28.3
Cummins to Kohli, out Bowled!! I0$ Kohli can't believe it. He stands there in disbelief before slowly trudging off. The WAGs of India look shell-shocked. Cummins meanwhile runs and punches the air in delight. A short of length delivery dug in on the stumps, Kohli rises on his toes to defend, with a slightly angled bat and that's fatal for him. It takes the inside-edge and on to the popping crease, falls on the stumps. Kohli was set for another 100 and was anchoring this beautifully. Cummins comes on and picks up one of the most important wickets of his career. Kohli b Cummins 54(63) [4s-4]
