Virat Kohli has always been extremely vivid in his celebrations with the bat, but this time, the Indian superstar went all-out after he picked up a rare wicket in his seven over spell against Cricket Australia XI. Kohli managed to notch the big wicket of Harry Nielsen who was on a score of 100.

India are currently prepping for the Test series against Australia with a warm-up match against Cricket Australia XI at the SCG. The visitors have already suffered a huge blow after 19-year old Prithvi Shaw was ruled out the series opener after he suffered an ankle injury while fielding in the warm-up match.

But they have put in a decent all-round performance with the bat and ball as well in the ongoing game. However, Indian skipper, Virat Kohli, stood out due to his efforts on both fronts. The Indian skipper, on third day's play, bowled two overs when the rest of the bowlers failed to make an impact. He did the same on the next day and the 30-year-old managed to bag the big wicket of Harry Nielsen who was batting on a score of 100.

The left-handed Australian tried to hit Kohli over on-side but ended up giving a simple catch to Umesh Yadav at mid-on. Kohli’s celebration after picking up the wicket was filled with passion as he was overjoyed with his achievement.
