Virat Kohli stunned both Axar Patel and Hardik Pandya when he nailed the typical Gujarati accent. Axar Patel was the hero of the match as he picked 11 wickets in the match and helped India defeat England in just 2 days at Ahmedabad. The left-arm spinner was awarded the man of the match in his home town of Ahmedabad at the Narendra Modi Stadium.
After India’s emphatic victory, Hardik Pandya was interviewing Axar Patel for BCCI.TV. While the two were talking entered the Indian captain Virat Kohli and stole the show by praising Axar in Gujarati. This left both local boys Axar and Hardik in splits as the Indian captain was spot on with his Gujarati accent.
