Team India batter Virat Kohli gave a cold stare to wicketkeeper-batter Rishabh Pant after the former survived a runout scare on Day 2 of the second against Bangladesh in Dhaka.
The incident took place in the last ball before lunch when Kohli pushed one to the mid-on fielder and set for a single. However, Pant denied and straightaway refused to take the single. Kohli, who was halfway down the middle, had to dive to return to the crease and suffered a close save.
Soon after making the ground, Virat Kohli gave his partner a cold stare before they made their way to the dressing room for the break.

Virat Kohli departs after getting a start
India suffered a major setback at the start of the second session on Day 2 as Kohli was dismissed for 24 off 73 balls. The right-handed batter poked at a length ball from Taskin Ahmed and was caught behind.
Meanwhile, starting the day at 19/0, India lost stand-in skipper KL Rahul early to left-arm spinner Taijul Islam. Shubman Gill also followed suit soon to leave the tourists reeling at 38/2. Since then, Pujara and Virat Kohli then stitched together a steady partnership to bail India out of danger. They added 34 runs for the third wicket before Pujara perished off Taijul’s bowling.
At the time of writing, India are currently at 127/4 with Rishabh Pant and Shreyas Iyer in the middle.
