Recently, a video has gone viral over social media. In this video, Arshdeep can be seen throwing the ball very wide when he was about to throw it at the wicketkeeper’s end to Dinesh Karthik. It was not the throw but the shell-shocking reaction from Dinesh Karthik that couldn’t stop even Virat Kohli from laughing. Following his laugh at DK’s reaction, Virat Kohli also left the spot immediately and went back to his position while he was laughing at the moment that happened between Arshdeep and Dinesh Karthik.

Karthik was also caught in the mic saying to Arshdeep, “Majaak Nahin hai ye (It’s not a joke).”

Speaking of the warm-up match, Australian skipper Aaron Finch won the flip of the coin and asked the men in blue to bat first. On the back of brilliant half-century knocks of 57 and 50 runs from KL Rahul and Suryakumar Yadav respectively, India managed to post a total of 186 runs for the loss of seven wickets in the allotted 20 overs.

While chasing the target, Australian skipper Aaron Finch played an amazing knock of 76 runs off 56 balls with seven boundaries and three sixes to his name. But Shami’s fiery last over of four wickets including a run out of Ashton Agar restricted the Aussies to the score of 180 runs in all 20 overs. Mohammed Shami scalped three wickets by conceding only four runs in the last over. Eventually, India registered a win of six runs in this practice match.
