Legendary cricketer Virat Kohli is not only known for his batting exploits but also for his antics on the field. Whatever the situation is, Kohli does not leave any chance to entertain the crowd with his almost perfect dance steps.
During the third and final Test of the series between India and New Zealand in Mumbai, Kohli showed his exceptional dance steps again and grooved to the famous Bollywood song 'My Name is Lakhan'.
A group of people in the crowd sang the song loudly inside the Wankhede Stadium and Kohli performed the famous hook step of the iconic dance while standing at the slip cordon. Seeing Kohli dance to their tunes, the crowd felt ecstatic and cheered for him.

Virat Kohli has previously danced in the middle of a game as well. The 35-year-old is an entertainer from the crowd's perspective and is their favorite as well. Alongside being a legendary batter, he is a skillful dancer as well.
While Kohli's dance was enjoyed by the spectators, it will be his batting on which most of the people will have their eyes on. The star batter has been going through a rough patch for some time now, especially in Test cricket.
Virat Kohli's poor Test form
Virat Kohli's numbers in Test cricket are dwindling at a quick rate. He has failed to score a significant match-winning score this Test season so far. In four Tests played this home season, Kohli has just one fifty to his name.
Kohli's game against spin bowling is something that is under the scanner. He was out to the left-arm spinner Mitchell Santner in both the innings of the second Test at Pune for low scores. He scored 1 and 17 across two innings of the match.
He will be looking to get back amongst the runs before the highly anticipated Border-Gavaskar Trophy. The ongoing Test match at Mumbai will be very crucial for Kohli to come back into some sort of form to regain his confidence.
New Zealand ahead in the series
Earlier, Tom Latham won the toss and elected to bat first. New Zealand lost Devon Conway cheaply but Will Young batted exceptionally well to reach his fifty. Washington Sundar carried on his good form and picked up the first two out of three wickets.
Meanwhile, New Zealand are currently leading 2-0 in the three-match Test series. The visitors stunned the hosts in the first two Tests and already have the series in the bag. New Zealand won the first Test at Bengaluru and then claimed the second Test at Pune as well.
The series defeat was India's first at home in 12 years and New Zealand created history by defeating a formidable team in their own conditions. It was also New Zealand's first-ever Test series win in India.
