IND vs NZ | Twitter laughs as applauding Kohli rushes Mitchell off to say he has had enough for the day
Few endeavors test the emotional character of its purveyors like elite sport with athletes expected to keep a calm head when being scrutinized by millions. Virat Kohli has been at the top enough to be respectful of rivals but jokingly let his frustration win in Indore after Daryl Mitchell's heroics.
New Zealand posted a competitive 337/8 on a dreamy batting track at the Holkar Stadium in the third and deciding ODI in Indore on Sunday after being asked to bat first by India. The visitors lost three early wickets before the on-song Daryl Mitchell once against played saviour, putting together a knock of 137 at quicker than run-a-ball top practically confirm man of the series hours for the three-match endeavour. The veteran only departed in the 45th over, after failing to dispatch Mohammed Siraj beyond the boundary, and remeberable scenes followed.
The Holkar Stadium rose as one to applaud the majestic knock they had just witnessed, and Mitchell made sure to acknowledge the crowd's endearing support despite being a visitng batter on his way back. The 34-year-old took off his helmet and twirled around to raise his abt to every section of the arena, while a couple of Indian players also congratulated him on his knock. However, at the boundaries waiting for him was Virat Kohli, patiently applauding as he saw Mitchell take his well deserved flowers. Yet, once Mitchell approached him, Kohli seemed to offer a warm word of congratulations before putting ahand on Mitchell's back and hurrying him off the playing surface, indicting India had seen enough of him for the day.
Twitterati had a good alugh about the incident.
