India and Australia clashed against each other in the second match of the four-match Test series at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. Australia were on the top as they have already cleared the Indian top order, courtesy of Australian spinners Nathan Lyon, Todd Murphy, and Matthew Kuhnemann.

Meanwhile, a video of Former Indian captain Virat Kohli has gone viral on social media. Kohli, who was obviously not very happy with the controversial umpire’s decision, had only one thing that could cheer him up in the dressing room and that was nothing but Ram Ke Chole Bhature in Delhi. Yes, Virat Kohli was spotted and was seen receiving a lunch order from one of the staff members inside the dressing room and cricket fans are guessing if it's Delhi’s famous Ram ke Chole Bhature.

Axar Patel and R Ashwin steadied the ship

Talking about the match, Kohli was looking well and set on the crease but fell after a controversial decision by umpire Nitin Menon. The umpire raised his finger after the Australian players appealed following Kohli offering a defensive shot to a delivery by Kuhnemann. Unhappy with the decision, Kohli referred it to the third umpire and TV replays showed that the ball might have made contact with the bat first on its way to the pad. But the TV umpire concluded that it might have hit the pad first, after which Kohli was adjudged LBW.

India slipped from 46 for 0 to 66 for 4 and then from 125 for 4 to 139 for 7, they were then hauled out of trouble by the Axar- Ashwin pair, the partnership adding 114 runs for the 8th wicket to restore parity. As such India's 262 was just 1 run shy of Australia's 263.

They then struck early by dismissing Usman Khawaja, but Travis Head, who was promoted to the top of the order, made a fluent unbeaten 39, he was well supported by intent-filled innings from Marnus Labuschagne and the visitors will be the happier side going into the end of the play, having stretched their overall lead to 62 runs.
