Ace cricketer Virat Kohli is famous for his batting and aggressive celebrations after any opponent batter's dismissal. A hilarious moment took place in the fourth Test match for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024, where Mohammed Siraj was seen talking to Marnus Labuschagne after bowling him an over.
However, during their conversation, Kohli jumped in and told Siraj not to engage with the Aussies with a smile. The stump mic caught the conversation, which was quite funny and intriguing at the same time. Kohli said, "Has ke baat nai karna hai inse.' His aggressive expressions were lost in the past few matches, but now he's all pumped up for the game.

Even Rohit Sharma was captured telling Ravindra Jadeja about the pitch. He said, "Jaddu ball bounce bhi ho raha hai. Turn bhi ho raha hai." Jadeja was the one who made the much-needed breakthrough for the Indian team by dismissing Sam Konstas. He was batting beautifully 60 runs before getting out on Jadeja's delivery.
Australia showed class act on the very first day of the Test match, with the top order hammering the Indian bowlers like school kids. This time, the batters were fully prepared for the bowlers which shows their intent towards the game and the series. On the other hand, India still look clueless in front of the mighty Aussies. As far as the game is concerned, it seems like another one-sided game is coming up.

I thought it should have been Nitish Kumar Reddy: Sunil Gavaskar
Former India player Sunil Gavaskar took a dig at the Indian selectors for not utilizing Nitish Kumar Reddy as the fourth bowler of the team. He's just bowling for around 10 overs and batting at No.8. Gavaskar showed no dissatisfaction against the inclusion of Washington Sundar but urged the management to make better decisions.
"No problem with Washington Sundar, because he will bowl a lot – but if Washington Sundar had to come in in place of anybody, I thought it should have been Nitish Kumar Reddy. If you’re batting at number eight and bowling about 10 overs, you’re not the fourth bowler that they’re looking for," said Gavaskar during commentary on Channel 7.
