Virat Kohli will once again be trying to score big in the third and final T20I against South Africa at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium on Sunday. Kohli had an outstanding day at the crease and on the field in the previous game at Mohali, where he had taken a stunning catch to dismiss his South African counterpart, Quinton de Kock. The Indian skipper then played a match-winning knock as his quickfire half-century helped India achieve the target by seven wickets and an over to spare. However, irrespective of whether it is a match day or a rest day, 'King Kohli' never compromises on fitness and always sweats it out in the gym. Virat Kohli got the company of his young team-mates in the gym as well.
