Virat Kohli has been having a tough time with the tosses in the recent past but not on Friday as he put the last five tosses result behind and won one against the Mumbai Indians in the first game of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2021 season.
Kohli recently didn't have great luck with the tosses as he lost all three of them in the recent ODI series against England and the last two in the T20I series as well. Even though the games' result didn't have a bearing in all of the games of the toss, but Kohli was also puzzled with the same.
However, he termed a start of the new tournament and a bit of a break to end the toss-losing run on the first day of IPL 2021. Kohli after winning the toss chose to bowl first against the defending champions.
The netizens, on the other hand, got the chance to poke fun at the same. While according to some it was a miracle for the coin to finally fall in Kohli's favour, while many referring to RCB's poor run in the tournament said that RCB won at least the first part of the game.
Here are some of the reactions:
