New Delhi: In the sixth over of the Australian innings there was a sudden buzz around the ground. People started to cheer and Dharamsala came to life. Not for another Australian wicket after Renshaw’s early one. It was for Virat Kohli.
Shoulder injury, not fit to lead the Indian side. So What? That doesn’t mean you can keep Virat Kohli off the field.
In another first, Virat Kohli walked out with drinks as 12th man. In the sixth over, Kohli was seen running on to the field. He had some word of advice for stand-in captain Ajinkya Rahane and bowler Umesh Yadav.
Kohli had to sit out because of a shoulder injury sustained during the third Test at Ranchi.
