Is it Virat Kohli’s suggestions to KL Rahul which led to Bangladesh’s first wicket?

Bangladesh’s batters are on fire as they have gone past 120 runs without a single wicket.

Bangladesh lost the first wicket during their chase of 513 runs in the first Test match against India at Zahur Ahmed Chowdhury Stadium. Indian bowlers were finding it very difficult to send the opening batters of Bangladesh to the pavilion. Bangladesh’s openers namely Shanto and Zakir Hasan had a great opening partnership.

The partnership between these two batters was 124 runs and it was broken by an Indian pacer named Umesh Yadav. A few overs ago this wicket of Shanto, the former Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli was seen giving some suggestions to skipper KL Rahul.

KL Rahul was seen a bit worried as Bangladeshi batters are playing well in the second innings. 2 overs after that conversation between Virat and KL Rahul, Shanto edged the ball and it went to Virat Kohli in the first slips. Virat dropped the catch but Rishabh took it.

It was a well-planned wicket from India. But was it Virat Kohli’s suggestions that led to Bangladesh’s first wicket? No one knows. But the Indian fans expect this should be the start of something good in this second inning for the Indian cricket team.
