Virat Kohli
When a batsman of Virat Kohli’s stature entered the field, the spectators started chanting Kohli…Kohli. However, the chants lasted for only a few minutes as the ex-Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) skipper was dismissed for his second consecutive golden duck by Sunrisers Hyderabad’s (SRH) South African left-arm pacer Marco Jansen (3-25). Kohli was caught at second slip by Aiden Markram.
