India vs Bangladesh: Virat Kohli gets annoyed after Rishabh Pant almost gets him run out

Former India captain Virat Kohli was seen giving a death stare to youngster Rishabh Pant on Day 2 of the ongoing second Test match between India and Bangladesh. India is currently playing the last game of their tour of Bangladesh at the Sher-e-Bangla Stadium. Meanwhile, the incident involving Kohli and Pant took place on Day 2 of the match, when India were three wickets down in the second innings.

Facing the final ball before lunch, Kohli flicked a shot toward mid-on and was looking to steal a quick single. Being already on the front foot and out of the crease, the former skipper went ahead in search of a run but Pant bailed out and sent the former skipper back. While Kohli managed to reach the crease right on time by pulling off a whole-hearted dive, the incident could have led to India losing their fourth wicket before lunch.
