#4 Rare failure for Kohli

It is not often that you see Indian captain Virat Kohli dismissed for a single figure score. Sunday, at the famed Chinnaswamy stadium in Bengaluru, was one such occasion. Kohli whipped Kagiso Rabada on the on side in his typical wristy fashion only to be neatly caught at the boundary by Andile Phehlukwayo. Kohli managed to score only 9 from 15 and left India in more than a spot of bother, with the scoreboard reading a poor 68 for 3.
Kohli was even given a life early in his innings when he charged down the pitch to Fortuin, and hit one straight back at him. Fortuin managed to get some portion of his hands to it, as he displayed swift reflexes in the follow through. But, the ball was hit with such force that it did not stick in his hands. Luckily, South Africa did not have to pay heavily for it.
