The Virat Kohli led Indian cricket team gave an exemplary performance as they thrashed the Kiwis in the 2nd Test match in Mumbai. The Kiwis were left clueless by the Indian spin bowling attack and lost the game with a huge margin of 372 runs at the iconic Wankhede Stadium, in Mumbai.
Resuming Day 4 at 140/5, overnight Kiwi batters Rachin Ravindra (18) and Henry Nicholls managed to add only 22 more runs to the total before Ravichandran Ashwin and Jayant Yadav joined hands and started their magic with the ball. Rachin was dismissed by Jayant Yadav, and the visitors still needed 378 runs for a win with only 4 wickets in hand.
But Jayant wasn’t done yet, as, in his very next over, he struck again and dismissed Kyle Jamieson and Tim Southee. The final two wickets also fell in quick succession and eventually, the Indian side defeated New Zealand with a huge margin of 372 runs.
While a wave of happiness went through the fans as team India won the series, however, Virat made the day of a fan even before the game on Day 4 commenced. An ardent fan of Virat Kohli was waiting for the Indian cricket team before their entry to the ground. The fan was celebrating his birthday today and had a placard that read ‘It is my birthday today’.
As Virat was going past him, the fan wished him all the luck for the game and also told him that it was his birthday today.
The video of the same has been going viral on the internet and has been winning hearts. Here, watch the video:
