Stump-Mic confession of the WI wicketkeeper says, 'My Mom Called and Said she was coming to Watch the Game for Virat Kohli'

An amazing innings from Virat Kohli gave Team India the upper hand on the opening day of the second test match against the West Indies in Trinidad. In his 500th international match for India, Virat scored his 30th half century in the longest format and then returned unbeaten on 87. After the quick dismissal, the unbeaten partnership of 106 runs between Kohli and Jadeja brought the team back into the game, as India posted 288/4 at stumps.


Fans who were watching the game on TV sets expressed their adoration for Kohli with reactions on social media, especially when he brought up his fifty with a beautiful cover drive off Jomel Warrican. But one of his admirers was standing close to him; right behind the stumps was the wicketkeeper of the West Indies, Joshua Da Silva.


Joshua was continuously talking as he was clearly heard on the stump mic, and to the surprise of everyone, his words were more of a fan boy. He was heard asking Kohli to get a century this time, as the ace Indian batsman missed out on one in the previous face-off in Dominica.


Later, Joshua was even heard saying at the stump mic that his mother told him that she would be coming to the Queen's Park Oval to watch Kohli bat, as Joshua said, "My mom called me and told me she's coming to watch the match for Virat Kohli; I couldn't believe it."
