Virat Kohli continues to command huge attention from Indian cricket fans, whether he is on the field or simply enjoying some downtime. The former India captain was part of the Indian setup for the third ODI against West Indies, with the series already decided before the final game.
After the match, Kohli was seen relaxing in the Indian dugout as supporters around the venue continued to show their affection for the star batter. One fan managed to catch his attention with a rather unexpected gesture, leading to a memorable moment after the game.
Fan shows off one8 shoe to Virat Kohli
As Kohli relaxed in the Indian dugout, a fan standing nearby removed his shoe and held it up towards the former India captain. The supporter was wearing footwear from Kohli’s one8 brand and appeared keen to make sure the batter noticed it. The fan’s gesture immediately caught Kohli’s attention. Kohli looked towards the supporter and reacted to what he was being shown, creating a fun exchange between the two after the conclusion of the third ODI.
The moment was particularly amusing because the fan did not simply point towards the footwear or call out to Kohli. Instead, he took off the shoe and held it up for the former India captain to see, leaving no doubt about the connection to Kohli’s brand. Kohli appeared to acknowledge the gesture while remaining relaxed in the dugout. The interaction offered a glimpse of the lighter side of the India star, who has frequently shared memorable moments with supporters during his career.
Here’s the video:
