Star Indian cricketer Virat Kohli is a great fitness freak and an inspiration for many people worldwide. He is known for his discipline and the balanced diet that makes him one of the fittest sportspersons in the world. But this does not stop even an elite athlete such as himself from having a bite at cheat food.
During the second Test against Australia in Delhi, Kohli was seen pumped getting after his cheat meal ‘Chhole Kulche’ arrived in the dressing room as confirmed by the coach Rahul Dravid himself after the match. In the ongoing Test between India and Australia in Ahmedabad, Kohli was again seen eating a snack on the field which seemed like a protein bar or something.
Before the start of the 22nd when the pacer Mohammad Shami was about to take charge, the camera caught the 34-year-old standing in the slip snacking and sneaking it inside his pocket as the Shami bowls his first delivery. As soon as Marnus Labuschagne defended the ball, Kohli was again seen putting his hands in his pocket, and this time, he offered the bar to Shreyas Iyer who was standing beside in the slip. He then threw it towards Iyer who snuffed it inside the pocket as the bowler was about to bowl his second delivery.

India scalped two Australian wickets so far
Australia have lost 2 wickets so far in the first inning of the final Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Travis Head was the first Australian batter to get dismissed as he tried to take on Ravichandran Ashwin but ended up giving an easy catch to Ravindra Jadeja in the 15th over. While Shami cleared the stumps of Labuschagne to give India a second breakthrough.
The visitors went on to score 75 for the loss of two wickets in the first session with Usman Khawaja and the skipper Steve Smith at the crease. After lunch, Khawaja went on to score a half-century and also added more than 50 runs for the third wicket with Smith.
India are currently leading in a four-match series by 2-1, but they still need to win the final Test in order to book their spot in the final of the Test Championship. While Australia have already qualified for the final after winning the Indore Test.
