On day 1 of the second West Indies vs India Test match in Port of Spain, Trinidad, Virat Kohli had a memorable day with the bat, showing glimpses of his best against the helpless Caribbean bowlers. The 34-year-old also gave back to the opposition fielders, who were chirping away at him, especially during the final session of play at the Queen’s Park Oval, when he started batting fluently in the middle.

At stumps, the Men in Blue posted the score of 288/4, after 84 overs, with both Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja not out on 87 and 36 respectively. They combined to post an unbroken century stand in the post-tea session, after West Indies bowlers had picked up four wickets in quick succession on July 20, Thursday.

As the fifth wicket partnership for Team India started to get ascendency over the Caribbean team, they started to engage in a friendly banter with Virat Kohli, who is playing his 500th international match, trying to unnerve him into playing a false stroke. During one such incident, the former Indian captain responded back to the wicketkeeper of the opposition Joshua Da Silva, who was very keen to have a chat with him right throughout the day, by saying, “Stealing doubles since 2012.”

The conversation was picked up on the stump mic and since then, the video of the same has gone viral across various social media platforms. As far as the statement from Virat Kohli goes, he is known to be one of the fastest runners in world cricket for the last decade or so. Even at the age of 34-years-old, he is often spotted running like a wind between the wickets to convert ones into twos and twos into threes.

Meanwhile, India has a great platform to put together a big first innings score at the Queen’s Park Oval on day 2 of the Test match. West Indies will have the opportunity to take the second new ball as they may please, during the morning session of play, which is the likeliest way for them to make further inroads into the opposition’s batting innings.
