Virat Kohli; Anushka Sharma

It happened in in the very first over of the match when CSK skipper MS Dhoni handed newbie Akash Singh the new ball. Kohli began with a boundary through mid-wicket in the very second ball of the over. But the right-arm pacer bounced back a delivery later with the prized wicket of Kohli, for just six off four.

It was a back of the length delivery around off and Kohli swung hard at it, but the ball took the inside edge, hit his shoes and ricocheted on to the stumps. Kohli was left in complete disbelief looking at the bails go red and stood there for seconds with sheer disappointment before he walked back towards the pavilion with his head down. Anushka, who was in the stands as he was in the previous two matches in Bengaluru, was left at complete loss of words.
