The Indian Team registered a stunning six-wicket victory over Australia in the second match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Thank's to yet another match-winning performance from Ravindra Jadeja, India was able to get to take a 2-0 lead in the series.

An incident involving Virat Kohli from a match played in Delhi, which is also the star cricketer's home ground, has won everyone's heart. The Delhi crowd at the Arun Jaitley Stadium started chanting Virat's Indian T20 League franchise, Bangalore's name.

However, the former Indian captain was quick to ask the fans to cheer for India. He pointed at his jersey and asked the fans to cheer for the country. The video of the same has gone viral over the internet.

Fans have lauded the 34-year-old for keeping aside the craze of his franchise and asking fans to focus on the Indian team. "His heart bleeds for the country. Love his passion for India," a fan wrote. "Strange that fans have chanted RCB in India's international game..makes not much of the sense despite few similar incidents in the past," wrote another.

In the meantime, a few fans used the chance to criticise the Indian Cricket Board. They said that while it seemed that he was pointing at India, he actually was pointing at Buyju's logo, India team's sponsor. "Chanting RCB RCB is better than chanting 'BYJU BYJU'," hilariously wrote a fan.

As for the match, India completely annihilated the visitors in the match. Star all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja was at his best as he claimed three wickets in the first innings and followed it up with seven in the next.

The baggy greens scored 263 runs in the first innings, thanks to Usman Khawaja's half-century. India replied with a score of 262, handing Australia a 1-run lead. Jadeja then bundled up the visitors for a score of 113. Chasing a target of 115 runs, Rohit Sharma and Co. got there comfortably with six wickets to spare.
