Even as Virat Kohli has been struggling with the bat in the ongoing Test series against New Zealand, the 35-year-old continues to give his everything on the field. With the former Indian captain's jersey all muddy due to putting all the hard yards on the field, netizens expect such marks on his bat when the hosts chase a tricky total on day three in Mumbai.

A journalist named Subhayan Chakraborty shared a picture of the same on X.
