Following India's convincing victory over South Africa in Vizag on Saturday, December 6th, securing the three-match ODI series 2–1, the celebratory mood spilled over from the pitch to social media. Pacer Arshdeep Singh, known for his engaging post-match reels, included batting maestro Virat Kohli in his latest effort, leading to a hilarious exchange that has since gone viral.

The Match Highlights: A Team Victory

The series-clinching win was a comprehensive performance by the Indian side. The bowlers first restricted the South African team, bowling them out for a target of 270 runs, with Prasidh Krishna and Kuldeep Yadav delivering exceptional spells, each bagging four crucial wickets.

During the chase, India’s batting line-up fired immediately. The opening pair of Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rohit Sharma provided a blistering start with a 135-run partnership. Jaiswal’s commanding century was the highlight of the early innings. However, it was Virat Kohli who stylishly sealed the victory, smashing a quickfire 65 runs off just 45 balls, ensuring a comfortable finish.

Arshdeep's Humorous Claim

In his now-regular post-match social media reel, Arshdeep Singh showcased his comedic timing by involving one of the team’s biggest stars. The reel featured Arshdeep playfully acting out a scenario where he was conversing with Kohli.

The humorous premise was simple: Arshdeep pretended to tell Kohli that if the match target had been slightly higher, he—Kohli—would have effortlessly scored a third consecutive hundred. This joke referenced Kohli's spectacular batting form and his consistent ability to rack up centuries, often seeming to just miss the milestone in rapid succession. It was a light-hearted tribute to his insatiable hunger for big scores.

Kohli’s Instant, Savage Reply

The video's punchline, however, came from Kohli himself. Reacting to Arshdeep's reel, the batting superstar offered a swift and utterly savage retort that instantly became the clip's defining moment and pushed it into viral territory.

Addressing Arshdeep’s comment about the higher target, Kohli simply quipped, "Teri bhi pakki thi." (Yours was also guaranteed/certain). While brief, this phrase brilliantly served as a humorous dig, suggesting that just as his century would have been a certainty in a higher-scoring game, so too would Arshdeep’s potential for conceding more runs. It was a classic piece of teammate banter, poking fun at the bowler's role in a high-pressure, run-leaking scenario.

This spontaneous, fun interaction between the established superstar and the young pacer underscores the excellent team camaraderie in the Indian camp. The friendly fire of Kohli's response, which was met with widespread laughter online, proves that sometimes the best entertainment happens off the field.
