Watch: MS Dhoni's playful gesture to Virat Kohli

The cool and calm MS Dhoni showed his playful side yesterday when he poked ‘Man of the Match’ Virat Kohli while going to speak during the post-match ceremony. India and Pakistan played out an exciting game Dhaka where the ‘Men in Blue’ emerged victorious by 5 wickets.

Virat Kohli was the star for India and was awarded the ‘Man of the Match’ for his brilliant knock of 49 runs which help India win the game. Kohli was standing on the sidelines after receiving his award and was chatting with a team member. Dhoni, who was called up next to speak, playfully pinched Kohli while passing by. Kohli, in reply, gave a smile to this gesture by his skipper. The camaraderie between the two superstars of Indian cricket was very captivating to see. After watching this video we can clearly understand the positive atmosphere in the dressing room.

The Indians were chasing 84 runs to win, courtesy to the outstanding work by the bowlers on a pitch which was assisting the bowlers very much. However, they lost three quick wickets with Rohit Sharma, Ajinkya Rahane and Suresh Raina all departing for dismal scores. Mohammad Amir looked unplayable was very threatening. But, Virat Kohli showed his class and proved once again why he is match-winner. He batted sturdily with Yuvraj Singh and took India to an easy win after serious setback early on. As far as the team performance is concerned, India currently has two wins in as many games after having previously beaten hosts Bangladesh in the their tournament opener.
