Team India star batsman Virat Kohli had a poor show in the first innings of the World Test Championships (WTC 2023) final against Australia at the Oval on Thursday. 

Kohli scored only 14 before being dismissed by a brilliant delivery of Mitchell Starc. His dismal show with the bat did not go down well with the fans. Moreover, Kohli was seen eating while having a fun chat with Shubman Gill in the dressing room. The development irked the fans even more. They slammed Kohli over various media platforms.

Later, Kohli shared an Instagram Story in which he took a potshot at the trolls. He shared a quote which read, “You must develop the ability to be disliked in order to free yourself from the prison of other people’s opinions.”

Kohli’s cryptic post has been loved by more than 12,500 fans on Istagram. Responding to the post, several fans have flooded the comment box with critical comments.

“Ha bhai bas pura din social media karlo. important match me sabko on field to out hi hona hai ja kar!” wrote a fan.

“Win an ICC tournament before becoming a philosopher,” another fan wrote.

“Me thinks Kohli should focus on his game rather than posting cryptic Instagram stories,” a third user commented.
