The third match of Border Gavaskar Trophy is being played at Gabba ground in Brisbane. Indian team captain Rohit Sharma won the toss and decided to bat first and Australia got the invitation to bat first. Once again, young batsman Nathan McSweeney and experienced batsman Usman Khawaja started the innings for Australia. Whereas Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammad Siraj started the bowling for India again. During the match, Indian legend Virat Kohli was also seen in his familiar style and as a senior player, he was seen guiding the team's bowlers.

Told Siraj how to take wickets

Former captain of Team India, Virat Kohli is often seen on the field giving good advice to the bowlers of Team India.

A similar scene was seen during the ongoing third Test at Gabba in Brisbane. Virat was seen asking Indian fast bowler Mohammad Siraj to bowl at the right place. In the video that surfaced, you can hear that Virat told Siraj, 'a little further'. Virat was asking Siraj to bowl a little ahead so that he could get the wicket.

Harbhajan supported Virat's advice

“A little faster!”

Former Indian cricketer Harbhajan Singh also seemed to agree with the advice given by Virat Kohli to Mohammad Siraj.

Harbhajan Singh, who is doing Hindi commentary with Jatin Sapru, agreed with Virat. He said that Virat Kohli gave the right advice there to put it a little further. Anyway, he is standing behind with his legs folded. Do not come forward to drive. The more you invite Khawaja to drive, the better it will be for the team. He will create opportunities to get out.
