Win Projections to be updated soon
On Friday, September 27, at Green Park, Kanpur, the second and crucial Test between India and Bangladesh began. The outfield became muddy due to overnight rain, which forced the game to be delayed by one hour. The ground crew worked feverishly to prepare the ground before Virat Kohli and the other cricket players went outside to rehearse.
A ground staff member approached the great cricket player, Virat Kohli, as he was entering the pitch and touched his foot. After taking a moment to comprehend the circumstances, the former captain of India tapped the young man on the shoulder. Kohli hasn’t played in Kanpur since smashing 113 off 106 balls in an ODI against the West Indies in 2017.

As they prepare to see one of the greatest cricket players of all time in action, the residents of the Leather City of the World are incredibly excited. After being removed cheaply in both innings of the first Test in Chennai, Kohli would try to make his return to Kanpur unforgettable by making a lot of runs.
Before the New Zealand series, Virat Kohli hopes to regain his Test form.
In the upcoming months, India will play three Test matches against New Zealand and five against Australia. The legendary cricket player’s average in the Test format has fallen below 49 since he hasn’t been playing at his peak in recent years.
The 35-year-old’s average for the previous year was 55.91, but his averages for 2020, 2021, and 2022 were 19.33, 28.21, and 26.50, respectively. For personal reasons, he did not play in the five-match Test series against England earlier this year.
