Virat Kohli's Frustration Boils Over: Smashes Water Box in Anger as 'Umpire's Call' Continues his Tough Spell Against Spin Bowling

Yashasvi and Virat had a promising start, putting on 31 runs for the third wicket. However, their partnership was soon broken when Yashasvi Jaiswal edged a delivery from Mitchell Santner to first slip. With Yashasvi's dismissal, the pressure to secure a win now fell heavily on Virat Kohli. Showing his usual mastery, Virat was solid in defense but unfortunately, he fell victim to a delivery off the backfoot, ending his innings prematurely.

On the final ball of the 30th over, Kohli was adjudged leg before wicket, and he had to depart after scoring just 12. Mitchell Santner's delivery slided on and it thudded onto the back pad of Kohli's. The batter was struck in front of leg and the on-field umpire quickly raised his finger.

Kohli opted for a review, however, replays showed the ball clipping the leg-stump. The batter was visibly angry, and he was seen uttering something towards the on-field official Richard Illingworth before walking away.

A new video has now surfaced, and it shows Kohli letting his frustration out after the dismissal. The 35-year-old was seen hitting his bat on water boxes, which were placed on the sidelines.

The spectators were also seen trying to cheer up Kohli, by calling his dismissal "hard luck."

Talking about the second Test between India and New Zealand, the hosts were bundled out for 245 in the final innings, and the side was unable to chase the target of 359.

Speaking of Kohli, the right-handed batter scored just 18 runs in the entire second Test. In the ongoing series, he has just managed 88 runs, with 70 runs coming in the second innings of the first Test in Bengaluru.

Mitchell Santner took a six-wicket haul in the second innings, and overall, he returned with 13 wickets in the match. Owing to this performance, New Zealand scripted a famous victory.

New Zealand have now won their first overseas series, ever since the World Test Championship (WTC) began in 2019. This is also Kiwis' first Test series win in India.
