The first ODI between India and South Africa in Ranchi produced several memorable moments. Virat Kohli became the center of attention with his 135 off 120 balls. Off the field, a light-hearted exchange between him and Yashasvi Jaiswal also went viral on social media.
A funny moment was captured on camera after the match, showing Indian players standing near the boundary line. In the video, Kohli notices Jaiswal’s hairstyle as soon as he walks in. Jaiswal is currently sporting a middle-parted look, similar to the one Salman Khan wore in his hit film Tere Naam.
