BGT | Twitter in tears as tragic runout on brink of Stumps ends budding Kohli-Jaiswal stand
Aince the win in Perth, India have played some good cricket but have found of a way of shooting themselves in the foot in the ongoing Border Gavaskar Trophy. In the ongoing Boxing Day Test, Virat Kohli and Yashasvi Jaiswal ended their partnership with a horrible run out that left the latter shocked.
Having lost KL Rahul on the last ball before Tea, India found a foothold in the game thanks to Kohli and Jasiwal. The duo combined to see out the early pressure after the break before playing a more attacking brand of cricket. Jaiswal, in particular, looked to be in supreme touch and looked destined to score another big one before ball number six in over number 41.
After dispatching Scott Boland for a boundary behind square on the penultimate delivery of the over, Jaiswal drove the ball down the track to mid-on and immediately ran down the pitch for a single. Kohli, however, turned around and realized that the ball was in Cummin’s hands and decided not to run even though it was Jaiswal running to the danger end. Cummins still decided to have a pop at the stumps at the striker’s end and even though he missed, Carey was at hand to catch the ball and whip the bails off.
Twitter were not happy with the running and vented out, with the blame game basket getting passed around.
Oh hell no!

I saw Kohl’s wicket coming
He has been part of few runouts … at fault or at no fault … but usually gets dismissed right after
Horrible
When everything is going well for India then there comes a horrible runout. #INDvsAUS

Yup
Shows that this entire innings was in the mind, when positivity and resolve were around, VK kept away from meddling in that line.

That messy runout seemed to unsettle that resolve, and gone.
There was no run
There was no run, if Virat had run he wouldn't even have reached half of the pitch.

Weak
Kohli is mentally weak. That runout affected his play. Needs to be dropped soon.

Turned it around
That Jaiswal runout is the turning point of the match. Australia had no clue where the next wicket was coming from. Momentum was with us all the way. #INDvsAUS
