Virat Kohli scored his 6th double century and became the first ever Test captain to do so in the third Test against Sri Lanka on Sunday. After the end of the day's play, Virat Kohli had a candid conversation with team-mate Cheteshwar Pujara. 

During the conversation, Kohli revealed that Pujara has been beating him in every sports other than cricket.

After the end of second day’s play, Kohli and Pujara had a chat for on BCCI.tv during which Pujara asked Kohli if he would like to challenge him in any other sport. 

Kolhi started laughing and then said, "I am going to admit something today. I am very competitive. I hate playing against people who don’t make errors. This guy (Pujara) plays so safely while I end up making so many unforced errors and lose every thing. He beats me in tennis, table-tennis and has now even started beating me in FIFA. So now, I will try my luck in badminton- it’s a fast game and maybe I can beat him.

The conversation started with Kohli describing his feelings on achieving 6th double hundred. 

He said, "It feels wonderful. It was always my mindset is to score big 100s. Something I watched you do a lot in your career and learnt also how to concentrate for longer periods. I got inspired by your will to keep batting on for the team as long as possible."
