The ODI series against Sri Lanka was nothing special for Team India. In this series, the Indian team had to face defeat by 0-2, while one match ended in a draw. On the other hand, star batsman Virat Kohli also could not perform anything special. His bat remained completely silent. Amidst all this, a video of Virat Kohli after this series is becoming very viral on social media, which has won the heart of every cricket fan.

Virat won hearts even after losing the series

In the video going viral on social media, Virat Kohli is seen gifting his jersey to a player of the Sri Lankan team. This player is none other than Sri Lankan wicketkeeper batsman Kusal Mendis. Virat Kohli was also seen writing something on the jersey during this time, which he often does. While gifting his jersey to any player, he also writes a cute message along with the signature. Fans are now liking this video of Virat a lot.

Virat Kohli was a complete flop

Virat Kohli scored only 58 runs in three matches of this series at an average of 19.33. Let us tell you that he had come to play ODI series in Sri Lanka after 7 years, but this series was not memorable for him. At the same time, this was the first time when Virat scored runs with an average of less than 30 in any ODI series against Sri Lanka. In all three matches of this series, he was out LBW on the balls of spinners. Before this, he had never been out LBW against spinners in three consecutive matches in his ODI career.

Sri Lanka ends its 27 year wait

Sri Lanka has defeated India in ODI series only 3 times so far. This time it won the ODI series against Team India after a wait of 27 years. Earlier, Team India had lost the ODI series to Sri Lanka in the year 1997 but now this series has also ended. In this series, a very poor performance was also seen from the Indian batsmen. Apart from Rohit Sharma, no Indian player could touch the 100 run mark in this series.
