On the second day of the just-concluded Test match between India and New Zealand, Kohli was seen animated on the ground giving angry send-offs to New Zealand batsmen.
On the second day of the just-concluded Test match between India and New Zealand, Kohli was seen animated on the ground giving angry send-offs to New Zealand batsmen.
They were the New Zealand bowlers who wreaked havoc throughout the series. And, the India batters, meanwhile, were poor with their performance.
Post India's 7-wicket loss to New Zealand in the Christchurch Test on Monday, Kohli lashed out at a journalist after the latter asked Kohli to comment on his on-field behaviour.
Earlier, starting the day at 90/6, the Indian lower order, unlike that of the Black Caps, failed to show any resistance. The last four batsmen could add just 34 runs as they got bowled out for 124.
Prithvi Shaw's 54 off just 64 gave India a blazing start, but as soon as he fell, the New Zealand bowlers ran down the Indian spine as skipper Virat Kohli failed yet again, disappointing with a score of 3.
Kohli said that his ongoing form is not a matter of concern for him as it does happen in one's long career.
Southee became the Player of the Match as he returned figures of 9 for 110 while Boult picked up five wickets in the game giving away 96 runs.
Admitting the fact that India were not at their best in the match, the India skipper said that they would come out better in the next game.
Resuming the day at 144/4 and trailing by 39 runs, the visitors lost their last six wickets for mere 47 runs in 17 overs they batted on the fourth-day morning.
Ishant, the veteran of 96 Tests, revealed that he slept barely for four hours in the past two days and thus struggled hard to deal with a "jet-lag".
