Video| Virat Kohli, Ajinkya Rahane do a Salman Khan
India cricketers hit the gym ahead of Sri Lanka fixture in Asia Cup.
Mirpur: Sri Lanka is a known opponent but Mahendra Singh Dhoni and gang is leaving no stone unturned to attack with all their weapons out against the Islanders here on Tuesday. Virat Kohli, with Ajinkya Rahane for company, sweated it out in the gym like they are on a mission.
Kohli, who survived the Mohammad Amir storm against Pakistan on Saturday, looked sleek and fit with the long bars – dumbbells and kettlebells.
He missed out on his 13th T20I half-century by a run, dismissed for 49.
Rahane came in for the injured Shikhar Dhawan but fell prey to Amir’s inswingers.
India beat Sri Lanka at home 2-1 in the last T20I series they played. But the Mirpur strip is similar to that of Pune where Sri Lankan pacers rattled the Indians.
Nonetheless, the pace at which Kohli is progressing with the lat pulls and squats, he can give any Bollywood actor a run for money.
