Virat Kohli is always a source of entertainment with his various antics on the field and even when he is not in the playing XI, he never leaves an opportunity to come up with a hilarious joke. Kohli was rested for the inconsequential Asia Cup 2023 Super 4 match between India and Bangladesh on Friday but the star batter turned water boy for his side. After the dismissal of Anamul Haque, Kohli rushed into the ground with water for his teammates and his style of running left fans in splits. Mohammed Shami and Shardul Thakur provided India with a sensational start of the match with early breakthroughs.
Rohit Sharma won the toss and elected to bowl against Bangladesh.
