Ind vs Aus: India's premier batter Virat Kohli gave a death stare to young Washington Sundar after the southpaw perished to a slog sweep. Kohli and Sundar had stitched a steady partnership and when the southpaw tried something adventurous against Nathan Lyon and perished, Kohli, who was at the non-striker's end - was not impressed. Kohli and Sundar stitched a 89-run stand to put India in total command. But once Sundar perished, the look on Kohli's face said it all. Sundar was looking solid and was providing good support to Kohli. Sundar scored 29 vital runs before falling prey to Lyon. Lyon was over the moon after picking up that wicket. Here is what exactly transpired between Kohli and Sundar on Day 3 at Perth.

"Anushka has been right by my side through thick and thin. She knows everything that goes on behind the scenes. Knows what goes on in the head when you're not performing well. I'm not a guy who hangs around for the sake of it. I take pride in performing for the country," Kohli said after his century.
