India vs Australia: Virat Kohli takes a wicket in practice match, celebrates in style
New Delhi, Dec 01: India skipper Virat Kohli picked up his maiden wicket Down Under on the fourth day of the team’s practice match against Cricket Australia XI on Saturday.
Kohli scalped the wicket of centurion Harry Nielsen, who before getting dismissed had hammered nine boundaries in his 170-ball stay at the crease. Nielsen top-edged a delivery from Kohli and Umesh Yadav took the catch at mid-on. Kohli couldn’t believe his luck and celebrated emphatically after the batsman’s dismissal.
Kohli had bowled few overs on the third day of the match as well and teammate Ravichandran Ashwin gave a hilarious reason why he opted to do so.
“Dishing out a lesson to all the bowlers about probably where you should bowl. Jokes apart, he just wanted to bowl a couple of overs because the bowlers were tiring out and before the second new ball came into play,” Ashwin said in a video which was posted by the BCCI.
Indian bowlers had a tough outing in the warm-up clash with the Cricket Australia XI batsmen scoring runs for fun and took a healthy first innings lead.

Kantara mimicking case: HC extends interim relief given to actor Ranveer Singh till March 9
Bengaluru (PTI): The Karnataka High Court on Monday extended the interim relief given to Bollywood actor Ranveer Singh till March 9, in a case related to mimicking a character from the movie, 'Kantara Chapter-1', and allegedly mocking a deity.
The actor had approached the High Court seeking the quashing of the FIR against him for mimicking Rishab Shetty's role as 'Chavunda' deity in the movie.
While mimicking, Singh had called the deity a "ghost". The actor was asked to appear before the court in person on Monday.
Appearing on behalf of the actor, his counsel Sajjan Poovayya said Singh was stuck in London and was unable to reach Bengaluru due to the conflict in West Asia.
The complainant, who is a lawyer, alleged that his religious sentiments were hurt by calling the deity a ghost. On the directions of a local Court, the police registered a case against the actor.
The High Court on February 24 granted interim relief to the actor with directions to the police not to take any coercive steps against him.
