Virat Kohli Uses ‘Bail-Swap’ Mindgame Again, This Happens Next. Watch | Cricket News

[ad_1] During the India vs South Africa second Test match at Newlands in Cape Town, Virat Kohli was once again seen using his 'bail-swap'  move. Ahead of Stumps on Day 1, Aiden Markram seemingly tried to waste some time to avoid another over. This is when Kohli got near the stumps and swapped the bails. Kohli playfully switching the bails during fielding is not new. The player had done this during the first Test against South Africa in Centurion too. However, unlike last time where Kohli's move saw India getting a wicket in the same over, it failed to provide the guests breakthrough as Markram comfortably defended the last ball.Watch it here:thiswhen markram wasting time, kohli came again with a mantrajust hope, it'll work tomorrowpic.twitter.com/WneclrV2xj— (@shivangian10) January 3, 20...
