Virat Kohli took a stunning catch during the 3rdĀ India vs Australia ODI at the M.Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru to dismiss a well set Marnus Labuschagne. The Indian skipper dived full length towards his left and produced a blinder. Everyone on the field was amazed by Kohliās magnificent effort and the wicket also proved to be a turning point in the match. The 31-year old also received a lot of praises on social including the cricketer turned commentator Aakash Chopra. However, a social media user took a sly dig at ChopraĀ by calling him a āChamchaā (sycophant) of Kohli for just praising the Indian captain and not Manish Pandeyās sensational one-handed catch during the second ODI of the series. The former Indian cricketer wasnāt amused by the fanās response and he decided to give it back to the troller.Ā Ā India vs Australia Live Cricket Score 3rd ODI Match.
āWhat. A. Catch. Which followed a couple of outstanding saves that kept Marnus on strike,ā wrote the former Indian opener on the micro-blogging website. A Twitter user replied by saying āHello Mr chamcha of virat Kohli why you not tweeted when pandeyji takes a superb catch in last match.ā However, the comment didnāt go down well with the 42-year old and he shut up the troll in an utmost witty manner. āSorry. I pledge to tweet on every great catch taken in 2020. Get a life, dude. I was on commentary when Pandey ji took that catch and called it. And Praised it. I donāt tweet while commentating,ā wrote the 10-Test veteran in reply.
