Kohli-Smith, Root-Williamson all four played on the same day, how was the performance of ‘Fab Four’, who won and who disappointed

New Delhi. Virat Kohli, Steve Smith, Joe Root, Kane Williamson are the Fab Four of modern cricket. The rule of these four has continued for the last 10-12 years. In such a situation, what can we say if we get a chance to see all four cricketers playing on the same day? This wish of cricket lovers was fulfilled on 6 December when India vs Australia and New Zealand vs England test matches started. Of these, Kohli, Root and Williamson came in batting, while Smith showed excellence in fielding.

Two matches in Test cricket started on 6th December. The first match was played between New Zealand and England in Wellington. England batted first in this match. New Zealand bundled out the English team for 280 runs. In this match, Harry Brook (123) scored a brilliant century. The team’s biggest star Joe Root disappointed in this match. Root was out after scoring only 3 runs. he/she was caught by Daryl Mitchell on the ball of Nathan Smith.

Bumrah gave himself a birthday gift, for the first time in 22 years an Indian pacer did this feat.

Williamson took over the innings
After Joe Root, it was Kane Williamson’s turn among the batsmen included in the Fab Four. This New Zealand legend scored 37 runs against England. England took 5 wickets of New Zealand in just 86 runs. In such a situation, if not good, then Kane Williamson’s innings will definitely be called decent. However, he/she could not get his/her team out of trouble.

Virat Kohli returned playing only 8 balls
December 6 was nothing special for Virat Kohli, who scored a century in the Perth Test. Virat Kohli, who came to bat with the score of 69 for 2 wickets, could play only 8 balls. he/she scored 7 runs in these 8 balls and was caught at slip by Mitchell Starc.

Steve Smith made Kohli walk
Australia’s Steve Smith did not bat on Friday, but he/she definitely contributed in fielding. Steve Smith took the catch of Virat Kohli and forced him/her to return to the pavilion. Smith often bats at number 4. In such a situation, his/her batting can be seen on Saturday morning.
