Watch: Virat Kohli Is Scared by a South Africa Pacer. Sunil Gavaskars Response Is Magnificent

It's going to be a day that Indian cricket history will never forget. On the opening day of the second Test against South Africa, India decisively dismissed a side for a double digit score, which is a significant accomplishment. Mohammed Siraj took a career-high six wickets to help India eliminate South Africa for a meager 55 runs before the visitors were out for 153.Despite losing the top order, India defeated the Proteas by 56 runs at Tea. The match could finish in three days, if not less, because the pitch was not the best for batting. The South African batsmen ran back to the dug-out in dismay at the unsettling bounce and movement, both inward and outward, that Siraj exploited from the pitch.

In a span of nine overs, he picked six for 15.The Day also witnessed an incident in which Nadre Burger, a South African pacer, attempted to threaten Virat Kohli by hurling the ball in his direction. In return, Virat Kohli grinned. During the commentary, Sunil Gavaskar stated, "Virat Kohli is the wrong man to do your aggression."
