A relaxed and fun-loving Kohli was seen mimicking fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah during the mid-innings break of Ind vs SL 2nd Test at Bengaluru's Chinnaswamy stadium.
New Delhi: Ex-India skipper Virat Kohli is known for his aggressive attitude on the field, but there is also another side of the iconic batter. Virat, who recently stepped down as India skipper in all three formats, is going through a rough patch in his career as he has not been able to score runs. However, he looks much more relaxed and less tense, maybe because the captaincy burden is no more on his shoulders.

Talking about India-Sri Lanka 2nd Test, India opted to bat first after winning the toss. The hosts were bundled out for just 252 runs. At one point, India's batting lineup was left reeling as their top-order collapsed against the Lankan bowlers. Shreyas Iyer then played a heroic 92-run knock to help his team post a respectable total.
On Day 2, Jasprit Bumrah picked a sensational 5-wicket haul to bowl out Sri Lanka for just 109 runs. After ending Day 1 on 86/6, Sri Lanka managed to add just 23 runs in 1st session, losing 4 wickets as Bumrah and R Ashwin bagged two wickets apiece. India is rapidly moving towards a win, leading Sri Lanka by 143 runs.
