Kohli was once again seen having a little jig on the field after he took a catch during the second ODI match between India and Sri Lanka on Sunday.

During the 27th over, Sadeera Samarawickrama went for a big shot against Axar Patel but the ball hit his top edge and went high up in the air.

Kohli was positioned perfectly at cover and he completed an easy catch to hand India the breakthrough. Following the catch, Kohli broke into a Bihu dance - a dance form from the state of Assam - to celebrate the occasion.
