Indian skipper Virat Kohli received a rousing reception at Antigua when he walked out to bat in the second innings of the first Test against West Indies. Indian fans traveling everywhere India plays, and that can be seen with the high percentage of Indian fans in the stands.

Although there was very less crowd, it was enough to make Kohli feel like a king, which he is, no doubt. Kohli, who had failed in the first innings, didn't disappoint his fans in the second innings and scored a half-century before the end of third day's play. 

Virat is batting on 51 not out with his batting partner Ajinkya Rahane (53*). They have put another hundred run-partnership for the fourth wicket. This was their 8th hundred run-stand for this position, which is highest by any pair for the fourth wicket in India's Test history.

There is a reason the fans admire Kohli. His consistency is such that you can blindly expect him to score big in the next innings if he failed in the previous one. He has raised his bar so high that a fifty doesn't make his fans unique.

Here is how the fans welcomed him in second innings:
