Kohli docked for beaching IPL code of conduct
As the KKR team celebrated the prized scalp, Kohli went up to the umpire to review the call as he felt it was a waist-high no-ball.
India skipper Virat Kohli won the toss and elected to bat against Sri Lanka in the first cricket Test at Galle International stadium, here on Wednesday.
India have handed Test debut to all-rounder Hardik Pandya. Shikhar Dhawan will open the innings alongside Abhinav Mukund with KL Rahul sitting out due to viral fever.
The hosts are being led by Rangana Herath regular skipper since Dinesh Chandimal is unwell.
