Cricketer turned commentator Sunil Gavaskar was disappointed with Virat Kohli after India lost to Australia in the ICC WTC final 2023 on Sunday at the Oval in London. Virat only managed to add five runs to his overnight score of 44 as he got outplayed by Scott Bolland. It was a good length delivery from Bolland and Kohli wanted to drive that ball but ended up getting caught at slips, Steve Smith taking a brilliant catch to get rid of him. While discussing about the game, former India great Gavaskar slammed the former India skipper for his poor shot selection.

"It was a pretty ordinary shot. Outside the off stump. He was leaving till then. Maybe he was conscious that he needed one run to reach his half-century. It happens when you are nearing a milestone." said Gavaskar on Star Sports.

"It happened to Ravindra Jadeja. He played a delivery he shouldn't have when he was (on) 48. Happened to Ajinkya Rahane who was on 46. He hadn't played that shot all this while. Suddenly why do you play that shot? Because you are aware of that landmark."

"It was a bad shot. You should ask Kohli what shot he played. He talks so much about how to win a match you need a long innings. How are you going to do that if you play a ball so far outside the off stump?" he added.

While chasing a huge total of 444 runs, the Indian team lost seven wickets in the morning session and as a result, Australia won the game by 209 runs. Ajinkya Rahane and Shardul Thakur did try to put up a stand but then Starc cleaned up Rahane, leaving India reeling. His innings ended with a score of 46 runs in 108 balls.
