ENG vs IND - A sight cheered by Indian cricket fans every time team India takes the field in a test match - Virat Kohli leading the hot talks on the field, keeping up the energy in an otherwise considered 'slow' format. 

In the ongoing important final test match between England and India, Jonny Bairstow, who was in red hot form in the latter half of the test series against the Kiwis, was sledged by Kohli, after which the batter changed gears. However, in the end, Virat Kohli took a catch which dismissed Jonny Bairstow. 

Before Bairstow was sledged by Kohli, he was playing at a very slow unusual strike rate. However, Kohli's words ignited the fire in Bairstow as the explosive batter smacked yet another ton, scoring 106 runs off 140 deliveries with 14 fours and 2 sixes. Team India looked in a spot of bother till the English batter was at the crease.

However, in the 55th over, Mohammad Shami, who has been bowling excellently in this match, was rewarded on the first delivery. The last few overs didn't produce many runs and so Bairstow was looking to score runs as he played a booming drive against a full delivery well outside off stump. 

Bairstow went hard at the shot and the ball took the outside edge of the bat, flying to Virat Kohli at first slip with his fingers pointed up. Bairstow walked back after completing a ton while coming in to bat when England were at 78/4 and going on to 83/5 to being dismissed at 241.
