Virat Kohli’s poor form continues in the IPL. In the match against Lucknow on 19th April, Virat got out on the first ball itself.
Virat Kohli Golden Duck: The luck of former Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) captain Virat Kohli has not been supporting him for a long time. Virat Kohli’s bat is calm and the same trend continues in IPL 2022 as well. In the match against Lucknow Super Giants on April 19, when the fans had hoped for Virat Kohli, then Virat got out on the first ball without opening the account.
This is the first golden duck (means out for zero on the first ball) of Virat Kohli this season. Lucknow Giants won the toss in this match and decided to bowl. Anuj Rawat returned to the pavilion early which was a setback to RCB in the early stage of the match.
When ‘King’ Virat Kohli came to bat, the fans were in awe. Dushmanta Chamira bowled the last ball of the first over and Virat Kohli hit a shot towards point. Deepak Hooda standing here caught the catch easily and gave a big blow to RCB.
Virat Kohli’s poor form has been going on for a long time, which is now visible in IPL after international cricket. The expression of Virat Kohli getting out on the first ball and leaving the pavilion with a smile is also going viral.
If we talk about the history of IPL, then this is the fourth time when Virat Kohli has been out on a golden duck. Whereas this is the first time in the last five years that this has happened. Virat Kohli last became the victim of a golden duck in 2017.

Virat Kohli’s performance has been quiet for a long time, not only in IPL but also in international cricket. Runs are coming out of his bat, but the centuries and big scores for which Virat Kohli is known have not come for three years. Virat Kohli is no longer the captain of any team, he left the captaincy of RCB in the last IPL. While he is not the captain of any format in Team India too.
