Security authorities made a decent attempt to catch hold of them out even as the cricketer himself demands them not to be too cruel on the fans.

The 33-year-old at last obliges the selfie demand yet requests that fans keep up with social distancing, remembering the bio-bubble conventions.

Virat Kohli received thunderous reception during the Test from the spectators as he plays for Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League.Regardless of Kohli’s twin disappointments, Team India end up in order in the pink-ball Test civility of Shreyas Iyer, Rishabh Pant and Jasprit Bumrah. While Shreyas scored 92 and 67, Pant contributed 39 and 50. Bumrah asserted 5 for 24 in Sri Lanka’s first innings and sent back Lahiru Thirimanne for a duck in the second.
