Indian skipper Virat Kohli on Thursday created a record which he would certainly not like to know. He was dismissed for a golden duck by James Anderson in the first Test match at Trent Bridge, Nottingham. With this, Kohli now has three golden ducks as a captain in Test matches, which is an Indian record. Former skippers Lala Amarnath, Kapil Dev and Sourav Ganguly have two golden ducks each, pointed sports statistician Mohandas Menon.
Meanwhile, in a repeat of the harrowing memories of India's 2014 tour to England, James Anderson got Kohli's wicket in a similar fashion in the first Test match. Kohli edged the ball which was outside his off stump and was caught behind by wicketkeeper Jos Buttler. The 39-year-old bowler's celebration showed the importance of Kohli's wicket for him and his team.
