Kohli shows team spirit by serving drinks to teammates

• India has already secured a spot in the Asia Cup 2023 final and has decided to rest key players for the inconsequential game against Bangladesh.
• Virat Kohli was spotted serving drinks to his fellow players during the match breaks.
• India got off to a strong start against Bangladesh, dismissing their openers in the early overs.

Former Indian captain and current middle-order batsman Virat Kohli has been given a break for the India vs. Bangladesh match in the ongoing Asia Cup 2023 ahead of the tournament’s final clash against Sri Lanka, scheduled for Sunday, September 17, in Colombo.

Despite being sidelined for the game, the 34-year-old cricketer hasn’t taken a complete rest. Instead, he was spotted serving drinks to his fellow players during the match breaks.

Kohli, renowned not only for his batting prowess but also for his lively persona off the field, seemed to relish his role as a drinks carrier while India maintained their dominance over Bangladesh.

A video capturing this moment quickly went viral on social media, and fans showered praise on Kohli for his spirited involvement as a waterboy.

It’s worth noting that India has already secured a spot in the Asia Cup 2023 final and has decided to rest key players for the inconsequential game against Bangladesh.

Kohli, along with Hardik Pandya, Kuldeep Yadav, and the primary pace bowling duo of Mohammad Siraj and Jasprit Bumrah, is among those on the bench for this match.

Despite these changes in the bowling lineup, India got off to a strong start against Bangladesh, dismissing their openers in the early overs.

The experienced Mohammad Shami accounted for the wickets of Litton Das and Towhid Hriody, while Shardul Thakur claimed the scalps of Tanzid Hasan, Anamul Haque, and the Bangladesh captain, Shakib Al Hasan.

At the time of reporting, Bangladesh was batting at 197-7 in 42 overs, with Nasum Ahmed and Mahedi Hasan still at the crease.
