After the match, Virat Kohli was seen touching Axar's feet. Its video is becoming very viral on social media.
Axar had Williamson stumped in the 41st over. In an attempt to hit a big shot on Axar's ball, Williamson came out very far from the crease, but the ball missed his bat and went into the gloves of wicketkeeper Rahul and Rahul scattered the stumps. This proved to be the turning point of the match and after this India bowled out New Zealand for 205 runs in 45.3 overs. After the match, Virat Kohli walked towards Akshar and almost touched his feet. Akshar then picked up Virat and both sat down on the field joking and laughing. After this, the rest of the players also reached there and took part in this joke.
