As Team India bagged a series-clinching 16-run victory in the 2nd T20I against South Africa, Indian talisman Virat Kohli's selfless gesture to teammate Dinesh Karthik while batting on 49, is ruling the internet.

The 33-year-old was just one run shy from another half-century with India's score at 230 and two deliveries still left to play. However, when Dinesh Karthik asked Kohli if he should take a single, Virat Kohli told the keeper batsman to play his game and not worry about handing over the strike.

Karthik then went on to hit a six off the very next ball and took a single on a bye off the last ball to finish India's innings on an impressive 237/3.
