Indian skipper Virat Kohli was miffed with something as soon as the pacer Bhuvneshwar Kumar got Jos Buttler out as he charged towards the England batsman. Bhuvneshwar broke the threatening partnership between Dawid Malan and Buttler as he got the latter to hit one straight up in the air and into the hands of Hardik Pandya.

Just at that moment, Kohli wasn't happy as he chirped a few words at the departing batsman. It got a little serious as Buttler while looking back kept saying something but had to stop and go back to give it back to the Indian captain as the spat got heated.

After Buttler left the field, the umpire Nitin Menon came up to Virat Kohli and intervened and asked him what really had happened. Virat was visibly frustrated with the 130-run partnership between Malan and Buttler, which was threatening to take the game away from the Indian side.

The wicket, which brought a sigh of relief for the home side also witnessed skipper Virat Kohli letting out his frustration. But that wickets certainly swung the momentum in Team India's favour as India picked up three more wickets in the next three overs to push the England team to backfoot.
