IND VS SA Test Series: Indian Cricket Team is currently on tour of South Africa where they are done with with T20I's and the ODI's, and are now currently playing a two-match Test series to be counted in their respective World Test Championship (WTC) cycles. India dominated in the One-Day Internationals and are now looking to carry their solid red-ball form of 2023 into the series. However, India are off to a shaky start after their dismal batting performance against the Proteas led them to an embarrassing defeat by an innings and 32 runs.
However, Indians fans did get a glance and a glimpse of some light moments as Virat made a little fan's day by sharing some good moments with him, thereby, giving the boy a lifelong memory to cherish. The moment came on December 27, which was the Day 2 of the first Test match, before the start of the first session, when the young fan appeared on the ground and Virat signed a jersey for him. However, this wasn't the only thing 'The Modern Era Great' did. He accepted the request for a photograph and even smiled and got himslef clicked with the little boy.
Virat performed well and looked exceptionally well during the first Test match at the SuperSport Park, Centurion. His heroics weren't enough to sail India past the trailing target in-order to avoid an innings defeat. While other batters, except KL Rahul in the first innings, looked clueless and bended a knee to the fire-breathing pace attack of the Proteas, Virat really stood like a 'King' and made sure India avoids the embarrassing defeat. However, even the legend of the modern era couldn't prevent the inevitable as he was the last wicket to fall for India as he departed on 72, when Rabada caught him off for a blinder.
