So Basu sir (Shanker Basu) told me, &#39;tonight, you can afford to eat anything you like,&#39; but even then I ordered -- and I was eating meat that time -- I ordered a chicken burger.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;I took off the top bun -- I couldn&#39;t stop myself -- I said, okay, one piece of bread is okay, not two, but then I had a big plate of fries and then I had a chocolate shake along with that, because I knew my body needs it,&quot; Kohli had said in an interview to India Today.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>India lead the three-match T20 series against Sri Lanka 1-0 after their facile seven-wicket win in Indore on Tuesday. Kohli hit the winnings runs by whacking a six as he remained unbeaten on 30 from 17 deliveries.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The first T20I in Guwahati was called off without a ball being bowled due to rain and wet patches on the pitch.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The third and final T20 will be played here on Friday.<br \/>\r\n&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n\r\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-lang=\"en\">\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Ball out of the Bowlers hand and Chholle Bhature for a cheat meal deserve the same kind of focus. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ctEs96bvQa\">pic.twitter.com\/ctEs96bvQa<\/a><\/p>\r\n&mdash; Virat Kohli (@imVkohli) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/imVkohli\/status\/1215290073593208834?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 9, 2020<\/a><\/blockquote>\r\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>",
