Watch: Virat Kohli's Hilarious Celebration After He Picks Up A Wicket Against Cricket Australia XI

India skipper Virat Kohli celebrated hilariously after picking up a wicket in the warm-up game against Cricket Australia XI.

It is not everyday that Virat Kohli is seen rolling his arms over. Arguably the best batsman in the world right now, Kohli has so far picked only 8 wickets across formats. He last bowled in international cricket during the semifinal loss against Windies in 2016. Well, with the Indian bowlers failing to get the better off the Cricket Australia XI batsmen in the ongoing warm-up game, Kohli decided to take the matters in his own hands.

Kohli introduced himself into the attack during the 87th over of the Cricket Australia XI innings on day three when Harry Nielsen and Aaron Hardie were making the Indians work hard on the field. However, Kohli too failed to get the much-needed breakthrough. The India star finished with a two-over spell wherein he conceded six runs.

Kohli created a chance in his very first ball as left-handed Nielsen played an aerial flick off his pads that fell just short of Jasprit Bumrah.

Well, Kohli finally got the wicket on day four when he sent back Nielsen shortly after the latter scored his century. The left-handed batsman hit one straight into the hands of Umesh Yadav at long on. And as soon as Umesh took the catch, Kohli broke into a hilarious celebration. In fact, he covered his mouth with his hand as soon as Nielsen hit the ball in the air.
