AUS vs IND : Virat Kohli and aggression go hand-in-hand and when it comes to entertaining the crowd or taking a jibe at them, he would be the first player on the field to take the plunge.

During Day 2 of the 3rd Test of the ongoing India-Australia Border Gavaskar Trophy, the 35-year-old India superstar didn't hold back his emotions and gave a fitting reply to the hostile Gabba crowd, who kept on booeing the Indian players, especially Mohammed Siraj.

Just before lunch, Marnus Labuschagne, who had scored 12 runs off 54 balls, edged a delivery from Nitish Kumar Reddy. The ball went straight to Virat Kohli, positioned at second slip. After taking the catch, Kohli celebrated with great intensity, and his finger-on-the-lip gesture, directed at the Australian fans, quickly went viral on the internet.

The RCB star was already fired up on the field on Sunday. Before taking Labuschagne's catch off the second ball of the 34th over of Australia's first innings, Kohli also grabbed a catch to dismiss Nathan McSweeney. McSweeney was caught in the second slip by Kohli off Jasprit Bumrah's delivery, which dismissed him on the third ball of the 19th over.

Australia resumed their innings at 28 without loss, but they lost Usman Khawaja (21 off 54) in the fourth over of the day. Bumrah got him caught behind with a delivery that slightly straightened, resulting in a faint outside edge. This marked the third time in the series that Bumrah had dismissed the left-handed opener.

During the morning session of Day 2, the Australian batters managed to score 76 runs off 29.4 overs while losing three wickets. Travis Head and Steve Smith then took control of the innings, and at the time of writing this article, they had established a partnership of over 150 runs, with Head scoring a century and Smith still at the crease.
