India vs New Zealand: Wasim Jaffer Shares Side-Splitting Meme On Virat Kohli's Toss Win
Former India opener Wasim Jaffer shared a side-splitting meme on social media platform Koo following Virat Kohli's toss win on Friday.
India captain Virat Kohli won the toss in the second Test against New Zealand in Mumbai on Friday and opted to bat first. Kohli is returning to the team after taking a break during the three-match T20I series, which India swept 3-0, and the drawn Kanpur Test. With Friday's toss win, Kohli maintained India's perfect record with the coin in the ongoing bilateral series. Earlier in the series, Rohit Sharma had won the toss in all three games while captaining India in the T20I series. Ajinkya Rahane, stand-in captain in Kanpur, followed suit in the opening Test as he won the toss.

The video shared by Jaffer is from a 2016 college basketball match in the US, where the coach dances into the dressing room to meet his players after the team's victory.
"Virat Kohli entering the dressing room after winning the toss," Jaffer wrote in the text accompanying the video.
