After a thumping 228 runs victory over the Pakistan cricket team in the Asia Cup 2023 yesterday, the Indian cricket team is today playing against Sri Lanka in one of the most crucial match of the tournament that may decide the finalists for the Asia Cup 2023 edition. Batting, India, after a good start is struggling now and just now last March’s centurion Virat Kohli gave away his wicket Dunith Wellalage.
After winning the toss in Colombo, the Indian cricket team captain Rohit Sharma opted to bat first. Both Sharma and Shubman Gill gave India a great start 80 runs for the 1st wicket before Shubman Gill gave away his wicket after scoring 19 runs.
Coming in at number 3 was Virat Kohli, who scored a brilliant century in the match against Pakistan where he scored 122 runs and the fans were expecting the same from the former Indian cricket team captain.

But it was completely the opposite that happened as Virat Kohli cheaply gave away his wicket to Sri Lanka’s 20-years-old youngster Dunith Wellalage. Kohli scored just 3 runs in 12 balls before handing a catch to Dasun Shanaka. Watch the video of Dunith Wellalage taking Virat Kohli’s wicket.

Team India at the moment looks in big trouble. Dunith has been tremendous form in this match, getting rid of Indian top order completely in this match. Dunith Wellalage got the better of Shubman Gill with a brilliant ball and then got the wicket of former India captain Virat Kohli and then also got the wicket of current India captain Rohit Sharma.
