India are currently playing against Australia in the fourth and final Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad. After Australia's notched a mammoth total of 480 runs, everyone was looking forward to how the Indian batters would fare with the bat, especially former captain Virat Kohli.
Kohli, who has been suffering from a run-drought in the longest format of the game for a long time, was supposed to score runs on the batting-friendly track. As per the expectations, Kohli managed to break the curse and scored fifty after 14 months. He is, currently, unbeaten on 59 runs off 128 balls and will be looking to score a daddy hundred.
However, after scoring his fifty, a very bromance moment was captured by the cameraman. After scoring 50, Kohli raised the bat to take appreciation from the audience and his teammates. In response, Ishan Kishan folded his hands in a 'namaste' pose indicating Kohli's prayers at Mahakal temple. As the video of the incident went viral, fans noticed a bizarre thing as well.
In the viral video, netizens also noticed India opener KL Rahul's bizarre reaction. When Virat Kohli was raising his bat, Rahul seemed disappointed. His reaction raised speculations over his team bonding and equation with the senior members.
India need to bat hard on Day 4:
Team India batted well on Day 3 of the Ahmedabad Test but are still 191 runs behind Australia's first-innings score. Rohit Sharma and co. Will hope that Virat Kohli bats deep and score a century for the team. He is, currently, unbeaten at the crease along with all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja. India are fighting for the sole birth at the Test Championship finals and a win will ensure them that place.
On the other hand, New Zealand are taking on Sri Lanka and fighting well after getting five down in the first Innings. If India loses or draws the fourth Test with Australia, and Sri Lanka manage to win both the Tests against Kiwis, Sri Lanka will qualify for the Test Championship final.
Meanwhile, fans react to KL Rahul's bizarre reaction and called it against team spirit. A Twitter user said, "Dost dost na raha."
