IND vs USA:
On June 12, a match was played between India and USA in the T20 World Cup 2024. USA batted first and put 110 runs on the scoreboard, but when the Indian openers came to the crease, something happened that was never seen before. Virat Kohli had played 26 innings in the T20 World Cup before the match against USA, but had never been out on a score of zero. But now Saurabh Netravalkar has become the first bowler in the history of T20 World Cup to make him a victim of a golden duck.
Golden duck in World Cup for the first time
Virat Kohli has become a victim of a golden duck for the first time in his T20 World Cup career. In the World Cup, USA’s Saurabh Netravalkar has created history by dismissing him on the very first ball. Before this, he was out on the very first ball only once in his entire international T20 career. Let us remind you that in January this year, in the T20 match against Afghanistan, Kohli was out on a golden duck off Farid Ahmed’s ball, but that was a regular T20 series match. Well, the name of USA bowler Saurabh Netravalkar will be remembered for decades for this feat in the World Cup 2024.
Only 5 runs in 3 matches
Virat Kohli has opened for India in all three matches so far in the T20 World Cup 2024. First of all, in the match against Ireland, he did play 5 balls, but was out after scoring only 1 run. Apart from this, Kohli, who always roared in the World Cup match against Pakistan, could score only 4 runs this time. Now in the clash with USA, Kohli has returned to the pavilion on a score of zero. Scoring only five runs in 3 World Cup matches is not a sign of a great batsman in any sense.
People are trolling a lot
People are trolling Virat Kohli a lot for this poor performance. In this World Cup, even Mohammad Siraj (7 runs) and Arshdeep Singh (9 runs) have scored more than Kohli. Although some people have still come to his defense saying that Kohli should not be made to open, but most cricket lovers seem to be very angry with him. A fan even called him Vibhishan and said that he is in cahoots with the USA.
Bring Back Yashasvi Jaiswal OR Sanju Samson and make them bat with Rohit Sharma as an Opener

As Virat Kohli is brilliant at No.3, India is wasting Virat as an opener
