Virat Kohli-Nathan Lyon's BANTER During Perth Test is UNMISSABLE | WATCH

India vs Australia: Virat Kohli and Nathan Lyon are two of the greats of the modern-day cricket and hence the excitement was huge when the two faced-off on Sunday at Perth. During a stage in Kohli's stay, he was up against Lyon and that is when all the chatter started. An incident that stole the show was when Lyon beat Kohli with a ball that turned square. Kohli missed it on the inside and Alex Carey could not stop it as it went for a boundary. While Kohli came to the other end, Lyon told him, ‘that was a decent ball’. Then Kohli said, ‘easy one, guys’. Lyon responded to Kohli saying, ‘oh jeez, that’s not respect there'.
