Xtra Time Web Desk: Indian captain Virat Kohli comes across as a very expressive cricketer on the field. He is always very fired up whenever he is on the field, with an aim to come out on top against the opponents. With Virat Kohli you can always expect something to happen when he is on the field – be it doing bhangra standing at the slips, encouraging the fans to cheer the team or even interacting with the supporters while fielding at the boundary.

So far in the ongoing second test match at Lord’s, the Indian captain has kept himself restrained on the field. Firstly, the test match is evenly poised with England showing signs of a fight back led by captain Joe Root who is batting on 49*. The hosts still trail by 245 runs with seven wickets in hand. Kohli has also lost two reviews on Day 2.  

A photo of the Indian captain is going viral on social media which looks like taken during Tea break on Day 2. Kohli was seen doing Nagin dance (according to netizens) at the Lord’s balcony. He was flanked by teammates KL Rahul, Mayank Agarwal, Mohammed Siraj and logistics manager Rishi Upadhyay. Everyone seemed to be enjoying the dance steps of the Indian captain.

Talking about an Indian captain’s eye catching moment at Lord’s balcony, one that comes to mind first is the shirt waving image of Sourav Ganguly after the Natwest Trophy victory in 2002. Virat on Friday tried to be a bit more entertaining. The President of BCCI, who was at the Lord’s ground on Day 2, might have thought twice before such an act as Kohli at the iconic venue. But then both Virat Kohli and Sourav Ganguly will always be remembered for their passion they played the game with.
