With renowned Bollywood actor Nana Patekar claiming in a recent interview that he doesn't like to eat when Team India batting star Virat Kohli gets out early, netizens hilariously hoped the veteran had his breakfast early. A host of memes went viral as Kohli lost his wicket after the first session on day one of the fifth Test against Australia in Sydney.
The dismissal of the former Indian captain occurred in the 32nd over of the innings as Kohli poked one outside off from Boland, causing debutant Beau Webster to take a sharp catch at the slip cordon. The right-handed batter had got a life in the eighth over of the innings when the third umpire ruled not out after an excellent teamwork from Steve Smith and Marnus Labuschagne to seemingly take a blinder.
Below is how the netizens have reacted to Virat Kohli's wicket and Nana Patekar's comments:
