The Coronavirus pandemic has ruined all the sporting timeline of the year. The pandemic has either canceled or suspended major sporting events and tournaments around the world, including the cash-rich league Indian Premier League 2020, in order to contain the spread of the dangerous Coronavirus, which has affected the whole world.
The Indian cricket team along with the overseas players would have been busy at this point of time, playing in IPL 2020 for their respective franchises had it not been delayed because of the Coronavirus.
There’s still a lot of time before Virat Kohli and the company make a comeback on the cricket field just like the sports stars as the whole world continues to be under the lockdown and maintain social distancing along with other precautions to save themselves from Coronavirus.

Meanwhile, seems like the Indian cricket skipper Virat Kohli is badly missing the game. On Tuesday, he took to his social media and shared a throwback picture of himself, one from India’s 2018-19 Test series in Australia, in order to troll the test format specialist Cheteshwar Pujara. In the picture, Virat Kohli can be seen taking a one-hand screamer, while Pujara can be seen looking at the skipper in awe.
Sharing the picture, Virat Kohli wrote how he wants Cheteshwar Pujara to be fit and ready, whenever cricket resumes. He wrote:
“First session after lockdown be like… @cheteshwar1 I hope you will go for the ball pujji,”

Cheteshwar Pujara was quick to notice the post and come up with a reply to the Indian skipper. Pujara took the banter very sportingly and wrote:
“Yes captain, and I shall catch it with both hands @virat.kohli,”
Mohammad Shami was quick to join the banter and he complimented the Indian skipper by writing ‘Superman’ in the comment section.
However, the most hilarious comment came from Kevin Pietersen, who stole all the limelight. Replying to the Indian skipper, KP took a dig at the Indian players who were not “used to” biting cold conditions. He wrote:
“#FakeNews. You couldn’t catch a cold in winter!”
