Nasser Hussain, who used to be a commentator, talked about the same thing on the radio and praised KS Bharat for being brave enough to go up to Virat and convince him not to take the review.
Aside from the first three wickets, which made the Indian camp happy, the Indian bowlers had a hard time and didn’t make much of an effect on Day 1 of the final World Test Championship match against Australia at the Oval. The pacers didn’t take advantage of a good start, and Travis Head and Steve Smith played great cricket to help Australia score 327 runs by the end of the day. Head scored 146 runs off of 150 deliveries, and Smith scored 95 runs off of 227 deliveries.
Going into Day 2, this puts the Pat Cummins-led team in the lead. KS Bharat has so far been one of Team India’s best players under Rohit Sharma’s direction. The wicketkeeper has done a great job behind the stumps. He has made two important catches, including a hard one on David Warner, who was looking dangerous in the middle. Aside from that, many past cricketers also liked the way KS Bharat talked to Rohit Sharma.
In particular, Smith tried to pull Shami in the last practice of the day, but the ball didn’t connect. Virat Kohli got excited as he stood in the slip cordon and called out to the referee. When the referee said no, Virat asked Rohit Sharma, who was captain, to take a review. But KS Bharat stopped them and told both Rohit and Virat not to take the review.
“He was really hard on Virat Kohli. It wasn’t easy to go against Kohli, but that’s what he did. Kohli wanted to review that, but Bharat, who was playing in his fifth Test match, had to run up to King Kohli and tell him, “Nope, you got that wrong.” “He was brave, but right,” Naseer said as he gave his opinion.
Ravi Shastri, who used to be the head coach of India, said that Bharat would have thought twice before telling Kohli if it had been anyone else. He went on to say that Virat was so upset that even Cheteshwar Pujara had to calm him down.
“He could very well be an old man. Yes, these batters and other teams. If it had been someone else, he wouldn’t have been half as animated. In fact, Shastri said, “Pujara was the one who had to tell Vrat to calm down.”
