Virat Kohli was dismissed for a superb delivery from Adil Rashid. Although, Rashid had a tough day, yesterday, but he managed to send the skipper of Indian cricket back to pavilion, without letting him score a century. Jos Buttler was very quick to dislodge the bails quickly effecting the dismissal.
