Watch: "Stealing doubles since 2012": Virat Kohli's savage comment caught in stumps mic

Virat Kohli is only 13 runs away from his 76th international century.

Former India captain Virat Kohli led from the front when the team was in a spot of bother and along with Ravindra Jadeja, ensured that India ended day one of the second Test against West Indies on a high.

The second Test between the two sides is being played at the Queen’s Park Oval in Port of Spain, Trinidad. The home side captain Kraigg Brathwaite won the toss and chose to bowl first on a pitch that the legendary pacer Curtly Ambrose called the slowest ever at the venue.

West Indies handed Kirk McKenzie his Test debut as he replaced Raymon Reifer while Shannon Gabriel was also included in the playing XI. On the other hand, India also made one change as Shardul Thakur made way for debutant Mukesh Kumar.

India started well as openers Rohit Sharma and Yashasvi Jaiswal picked up from where they had left in the first Test in Dominica. Then they had added more than 200 runs for the first innings and here, they were relentless against the West Indies bowlers as Brathwaite had to bring in spinner Jomel Warrican to bowl only after 45 minutes of play in the first session.

The duo added their second 100-plus run partnership for the first wicket in consecutive innings, but Jaiswal fell for a well-made 57 runs. Rohit Sharma looked good for his second hundred but was dismissed for 80 runs.

Then Shubman Gill (10), whose two outings at his preferred no.3 position have turned out to be duds and Ajinkya Rahane (8), fell early leaving India in a bit of trouble at 182/4.

But then Ravindra Jadeja joined Virat Kohli in the middle and the duo began scoring at a decently brisk rate. Apart from hitting the boundaries, they ran quickly between the wickets and often turned singles into doubles, much to the frustration of West Indies fielders and captains.

After converting one such single into a double, Virat Kohli was heard on the stump mic making a brilliant comment to West Indies fielders trying to unsettle him.

He responded, "I have been stealing doubles since 2012".
