And once again, we saw Virat Kohli getting out to England’s Adil Rashid, a sight that is no longer surprising for fans. After 451 days, Kohli scored an important fifty in the ongoing 50-over match against England. It certainly holds significance as the Champions Trophy is just around the corner. India will face Bangladesh first, followed by arch-rivals Pakistan and then New Zealand. Amid all this, the question on everyone’s mind is why Adil Rashid consistently manages to dismiss the run machine. Only Rashid might know the answer, but do you know how many times he has got Virat Kohli out?
Virat Kohli vs Adil Rashid
Well, it always feels like Rashid pulls off some magical delivery against Virat Kohli, whether it’s a full-on turning ball like the one he delivered to Kohli during the 2018 India tour of England when he dismissed him, even when the chase master was at his peak, or on several other occasions where he consistently deceived Kohli. In total, Rashid has managed to get Kohli out 11 times in 34 innings.
