All eyes were on Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja when they came out to bat on day four of the ongoing Test in Ahmedabad. India finished day three with a score of 289 runs for three wickets while trailing by 191 runs against Australia. So, fans were hoping for a solid start from both batters in the first session.

But, Jadeja failed to continue as he got out on 28 runs off 84 balls. He managed two fours and one six in his innings. Then, Srikar Bharat came out to bat and later, it got confirmed that Shreyas Iyer has been taken to the hospital for a scan as he claimed for lower back pain. However, both of them managed to see off the session without losing further wickets. But, during the partnership, an incident took place and that video has now gone viral.

Here is the shared video:

Speaking of the video, the incident took place during the 109th over of India’s innings. Virat Kohli was batting while Todd Murphy was bowling. On the fifth delivery of that over, Kohli nudged the ball wide of midwicket and called for a quick single. But, Srikar Bharat was adamant that there was no run and sent him back instantly. However, the former India skipper already reached the middle of the crease and managed to come back to the crease comfortably. 

But, he seemed not so happy as Kohli gave an angry star to the wicketkeeper batter. Fans noticed that and came up with their views on social media platforms. Some fans also claimed that Kohli should not behave like this, especially to a newcomer to the team. However, India have reached 362 runs for four wickets by the end of the first session on day four. Both Kohli and Bharat have put up a partnership of 53* runs so far. Virat Kohli was on 88* runs while Srikar Bharat was on 25* runs before seeing off the session.
