The Virat Kohli and Kesrick Williams rivalry that started 2 years back in Jamaica seems to be not ending anytime soon. While Virat got the better of Williams in the 1st T20 in Hyderabad it was William’s turn in last night in Thiruvananthapuram.
Williams got Kholi caught off his bowling at a score of 19 but this time it was no usual ‘notebook sendoff’ from the side of the West Indian. Williams after dismissing Kholi put his index finger on his lips and showed a ‘Shush’ gesture to the crowd sending a signal to silent down.
