A hilarious chat between Virat Kohli and Shakib Al Hasan has gone viral on social media during Day 2 of the first Test match between India and Bangladesh in Chennai on Friday.

Kohli came out to bat after India lost two quick wickets in the second innings and he looked in good touch before losing his wicket to Mehidy Hasan Miraz.

However, during his stay, the stump mic captured him referring to Shakib as ‘Malinga'. It was in reference to Shakib bowling a series of yorkers against him and as a result, he took a hilarious dig while namedropping the legendary Sri Lanka fast bowler Lasith Malinga.

With their bowlers dismissing Bangladesh for just 149 after their lower-order helped India post 376 in the first innings, the hosts swelled their lead to 308 and extended their dominance over the visitors on day two of the first Test at the MA Chidambaram Stadium on Friday.
