The third and final match of the three-match ODI series between India and Australia (IND vs AUS) is being played at the MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai. There was also an incident in this match when Axar Patel was run out because of Virat Kohli. Its video is becoming very viral.
Let us tell you that in this match, Australia captain Steve Smith won the toss and decided to bat first. Batting first, the Kangaroo team piled on 269 runs in 49 overs.
Axar Patel Made A Big Sacrifice
This incident was 28.5 overs when Mitchell Starc was bowling, and Axar Patel was in front of him. Axar flicks it towards mid-wicket and sets up for a single, but Virat Kohli, watching Smith move in, signals for Axar to go back, but it is too late. It was over

Smith flicked the ball and lay down the ground for Carey to run in and hit the stumps. I don’t know whose fault it was, but returning Axar didn’t work. The question is, could Virat Kohli have gone for a single?
Should Axar have waited for the ball to go past Smith? Axar Patel was sent as an experiment at number 4, where he could score two runs. However, after he was run out, Kohli scored his 65th half-century in ODIs. Kohli got out after scoring 54 runs.
