Bollywood actor Arjun Kapoor took to Instagram on Wednesday where he shared a hilarious video of a fan playing cricket on his own amid the nationwide lockdown. While posting the video, Arjun tagged the Indian skipper, Virat Kohli, and asked the latter whether he can relate to the person in the video.
In the video, a person can be seen bowling, then hitting the ball, and in the end, running himself out as old Hindi songs are being played in the background. Arjun captioned the video with laughing emojis and wrote: “All cricket lovers right now? @virat.kohli do you relate??”
