Fans take a selfie with Virat Kohli on Day 2 in Bengaluru

Security is of the utmost priority at a cricket ground. Especially in the COVID era, it is necessary that fans do not enter the field of play. However, the same happened on Sunday. Three fans got past the security and made their way to the centre of the field. They even managed to get a selfie with Virat Kohli. Of course, it was only possible because Virat obliged their request.

Bengaluru crowd has showered their love for Virat Kohli in the first two days. Considered as the adopted son of the city, every time Virat came out to bat, there was a huge reception, despite a wicket of India falling. Similarly, there was complete silence when he got out. Also, when he has been on the field, the crowd has kept cheering for the player. The former RCB skipper also responded to the crowd whenever he got an opportunity.
