ECB trolls Virat Kohli after Bairstow and Root masterclass in final Test match

England recently completed a magnificent run-chase against India as Jonny Bairstow and Joe Root both struck centuries to guide their team to a historical chase.

The match, however, was packed with drama. The most noticeable incident occurred during England's first inning where Virat Kohli and Jonny Bairstow had a falling out on the field.

Following the incident, Bairstow struck Indian bowlers all across the ground and reached took England out of trouble with his century.

Bairstow was striking at a strike rate of 21 before the Kohli incident but following that, he was smashing the balls at a strike rate of 150.

The in-form batsman again stepped up in the second innings and scored yet another century and guided England to a famous victory alongside Joe Root.

Following the victory, the England cricket team's Twitter account decided to give a befitting response with two images side-by-side; one of Virat Kohli sledging Bairstow followed by the former Indian captain showing respect after suffering a convincing defeat.

With this loss and after points deduction for maintaining a slow over-rate during the fifth Test match, India have been overtaken by Pakistan in the World Test Championship points table. 

Pakistan are currently third on the table and have a chance to further pull away with two-Test series against Sri Lanka.
