He went off the field in the fifteenth over when he ran in from profound mid-wicket and rattled in an ineffective endeavor to stop a subsequent run. Rohit Sharma took over the control over the captaincy when Kohli went off the field.<\/p>\n<p>He was seen limping after the game which India won by 8 races to level the 5-match series. In any case, Kohli said his physical issue isn\u2019t not kidding and will be fine before the series finale on March 20.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI ran for a ball, I dived and I threw it, so I was probably not in the best position. I just moved out to the outfield, earlier I was fielding in the inner ring. And the temperature drops pretty quickly, so your body tends to get stiff. So I just aggravated my upper quad a little bit and I didn\u2019t want to make it into a niggle or an injury.\u201d said Kohli.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s nothing serious. I should be fine by the day after tomorrow because we have the game in the evening. So probably took a smarter decision to come off and not sprint five-six more times and probably do it more because we have an important game coming up,\u201d Kohli said at the post-match presentation.<\/p>\n<p>India rode on sublime thumps from debutant <strong>Suryakumar Yadav<\/strong> (57), <strong>Shreyas Iyer<\/strong> (37) and <strong>Rishabh Pant<\/strong> (30) to post a difficult 185 for 8 wickets, their most noteworthy all out of the series, in the wake of being placed into bat.<\/p>\n<p>The hosts at that point limited England to 177 for 8 of every 20 overs with Shardul Thakur snatching 3 wickets while Hardik Pandya and Rahul Chahar took 2 each.<\/p>\n<p>India won the nail-biting match by 8 runs and level the series 5 matches T20I by 2-2.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Team India captain Virat Kohli clam down the concerns regarding his injury, due to which we saw him miss the\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":437,"featured_media":25493,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[461,324,658,624,303],"class_list":["post-2405","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-cricket","tag-ahmedabad","tag-rishabh-pant","tag-shreyas-iyer","tag-suryakumar-yadav","tag-t20-international"],"reading_time":"2 min read","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2405","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/437"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2405"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2405\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/25493"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2405"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2405"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.businessupturn.com\/sports\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2405"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
