Virat Kohli’s mojo with the bat is back. The star batter played a 48-ball 63 in the last T20I of the three-match series against Australia on Sunday. The energy and confidence of success were also seen in Kohli’s gestures on and off the field.
In a funny gesture, Kohli was seen sprinting back to teammates after collecting his ‘Energetic Player of the Match’ award after India’s 6-wicket win over Australia. He also had a laugh with his Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) teammate Glenn Maxwell after reaching the players’ huddle.
