Virat Kohli, who had a forgetful outing with the bat in the ongoing Test series in New Zealand, was all charged up in the first two sessions of the second day's play as New Zealand were bowled out for 235. In the 29th over, Jasprit Bumrah found the outside edge of Kane Williamson's bat that was taken behind the stumps by Rishabh Pant. As the New Zealand skipper was making his way back to the pavilion, Virat Kohli gave him a send off that was captured by a fan and the video went viral on social media. Virat Kohli was at it again when Mohammed Shami went through the Tom Latham's defenses and cleaned him up. As the New Zealand opener was walking back, Virat Kohli gave him a mouthful that caught the attention of a few fans on social media as they asked ICC to take stock of Kohli's behaviour on the field.
