Ind vs Ban: Virat Kohli fails to impress on Test return, captain Rohit Sharma's reaction goes VIRAL - Watch

India started the opening day of the first Test versus Bangladesh, at the MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai on Thursday (Sep 19), on a poor note after being asked to bat first. Courtesy of Hasan Mahmud, India were 34-3 with captain Rohit Sharma, Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli falling for cheap. Kohli had all eyes on himself as he marked his return to the Test side after the South Africa tour, missing the England home series early this year.

However, Kohli failed to get going and departed for a run-a-ball six, being caught behind by Litton Das off Mahmud. The pacer exposed Kohli's weakness outside the off-stump as the 35-year-old edged one behind the stumps. Here is the video of Kohli's dismissal:

Captain Rohit also looked disappointed after Kohli's fall and was clueless seeing India's horrid start. Here is his reaction:

Rohit himself departed for six early in the first session.

At the coin toss, Najmul Shanto opted to bowl first, with Bangladesh becoming the first team in 42 years to choose to fieldin a Test at Chepauk. Losing the toss, Rohit said, "I would have done that as well (bowl first). Little soft, the pitch. It's going to be challenging conditions. We have prepared well, so we should back our potential and play the way we know. Looking at the 10 Test matches, every match is important. But we want to focus on what lies in front of us. We came here a week back, we had a good prep leading up to this one. We feel confident. Three seamers and two spinners - Bumrah, Akash Deep, Siraj, Ashwin and Jadeja."

At the time of publishing this report, India are beyond the 150-run mark, losing six wickets,and under huge pressure to post 300 or above.
