Virat Kohli turned his captaincy hat on during the Champions Trophy 2025 final against New Zealand on Sunday in Dubai, the video of which went viral on social media. Incidentally, India were rewarded in the next over off the bowling of Varun Chakaravarthy.
The incident took place after the third ball of the seventh over with Rachin Ravindra and Will Young in the middle. With Rachin Ravindra taking on the Indian bowlers at will, Rohit Sharma looked puzzled.
That’s when Virat Kohli stepped in to take the mantle and gave the Indian skipper some insights on field placements. Earlier, in the last over, Mohammed Shami had dropped Rachin Ravindra.
The insights worked well for India as India eventually got their first breakthrough in the next over in the form of Will Young off the bowling of Varun Chakaravarthy.
