Virat Kohli Dismissed On Final Ball Of Day's Play vs New Zealand. Rohit Sharma Left Shellshocked

Rohit Sharma was left shellshocked as Virat Kohli was dismissed on the final ball of Day 3 during the first Test match between India and New Zealand in Bengaluru on Friday. Kohli showed tremendous form as he slammed 70 off 102 deliveries with the help of 8 fours and one six.
