Watch: Virat Kohli becomes India's 6th bowler under Rohit's captaincy

New Delhi: During the seventh warm-up match of the ongoing ICC T20 World Cup 2021 between India and Australia in Dubai Virat Kohli came to bless the field with the bowl in his hand.

Virat bowled 2 overs and gave just 12 runs. After this, it is being expected the Kohli can be the mystery 6th bowler for India as there are many questions that remain on Hardik Pandya’s fitness and performance.

Opting to bat first, Australia got off to the worst start possible as David Warner (1), Aaron Finch (8) and Mitchell Marsh (0) lost their wickets cheaply.

Ravichandran Ashwin dismissed Warner and Marsh while Ravindra Jadeja sent Finch back to the pavilion, reducing Australia to 11/3 in the fourth over.

Glenn Maxwell and Steve Smith then got together at the crease and the duo revived the innings for Australia. Both batters put on 61 runs for the fourth wicket, but as soon as Australia started gaining an upper hand, Rahul Chahar dismissed Maxwell (37) in the 12th over, reducing Australia to 72/4.
