However, the incident has strangely coincided with calls of late to drop Virat Kohli from the Indian lineup. Kohli’s dismal run of scores in the present tour has irked many experts and fans alike, as he is still searching for an international century since November 2019 continues.

Virat Kohli only managed a total of 31 runs in a couple of innings of the final Test, while the second and third T20Is were worth a paltry 12 runs for him. The exclusion of Kohli from the lineup has led to some great satire across the internet, as fans speculate on his future and comment on his bad luck.
