So far the South African bowlers are successful in keeping the Indian Batsmen in a defensive position and they are making a good variation between in-swing and out-swing. Virat Kohli advised Pandya how to anticipate the reverse swing.

Virat Kohli was on the strike and he faced a delivery and started a conversation with Hardik Pandya. Here is the full conversation between the two.
Kohli: Yahan pe change Kiya (Here he changed it)
Hardik: Andar ke Liye leke hi bhaagaa tha (He aimed the in-swing right from the start)
Kohli: Jo leke niklega agar change Karega to uska opposite hai (you can tell that by the way, he keeps the ball, if the bowler changes the movement, the delivery will be opposite)
Hardik: Main bataaun aapko? (Should I tell?)
Kohli: Nahin Nahin, Mujhe dikha, main bataa Raha Hun. (No, No, I Have spotted it, I Am just sharing the strategy)
The players have to be both physically and mentally active while playing cricket and this strategy shows that Virat Kohli is also active mentally while on the ground. What do you say? Share your thoughts in the comments.
