Virat Kohli is a very passionate and energetic guy: Tim Southee
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.
Taylor, who made his debut in 2006, has so far played 100* Tests, 231 ODIs and 100 T20Is. He is already New Zealand's leading run-scorer in Tests and ODIs with 7,174 and 8,570 runs, respectively.
Before Cheteshwar Pujara, the new 'wall' of Indian Test team, and opener Mayank Agarwal could take India out of hot waters, Jamieson dismissed Pujara (11) - his first Test wicket.
The Black Caps skipper also said that he will make a final inspection of the Basin Reserve pitch before confirming his side for the Wellington Test.
The southpaw feels that even though Mayank isn't as destructive as Virender Sehwag or David Warner, the 29-year-old has clarity of mind.
It will be a tough challenge for India to face New Zealand in the first Test match at the Basin Reserve which offers cross breeze blowing across the ground.
