Video : Virat Kohli Takes Guidance From MS Dhoni
Jan 23, 2017 at 11:18 AM
After a strong start provided to England by the new look opening pair of Sam Billings and Jason Roy, India struck back with a couple of quick wickets. For hosts, it was Ravindra Jadeja, who got the hosts right back into the game as he snared both openers in quick succession to peg down England’s scoring run-rate.
Nevertheless, skipper Eoin Morgan looked well set and hit a few stunning strokes before he holed out to the fielder at the edge of the circle. But for England, their star of the day so far has been none other than Jonny Bairstow. As ironic as this may seem, but this is indeed Bairstow’s first game of the series, and it comes in a dead rubber!
Bairstow calmly got the run rate back on track and in the due course registered his third half century. But the one aspect which hogged the limelight revolved around India’s iconic duo of Virat Kohli and MS Dhoni.
Dhoni, having an ocean of experience under his belt, was always there to guide Virat Kohli, be it for the tactical field placements or the bowling changes. Time and again in the third ODI, Dhoni was witnessed guiding Kohli on several aspects.
In the video below, we see how carefully Kohli listens to Dhoni and implements the plans of the former skipper.
