India’s Test skipper Virat Kohli has played a captain’s knock on Sunday in the 2nd Test match against England in Vishakhapatnam. As the Indian batsmen were unable to continue their running machines to score runs, Virat helped India post a fighting total of 204 runs in the second innings.
With a 200-run first innings lead, India set an improbable target of 405 runs for the visiting team. Virat was consistent in both first and second innings and won the hearts of Indian cricket fans.
Reacting to Kohli’s brilliant knock, former India opener Virender Sehwag applauded in his typical style, that that the India captain has undergone a superb “servicing”.
Here’s What He Tweeted:
Kya servicing huyi hai Machine ki.
Wah Virat Kohli Wah !— Virender Sehwag (@virendersehwag) November 20, 2016
This Twitter post was followed after a previous comment made by Sehwag on Kohli’s birthday in which Sehwag used “auto/taxi” as a point of reference.
