Kieron Pollard and Rohit Sharma share a good bond after playing together in IPL.
India batter Virat Kohli is never short of words when it comes to on-field banter. He is known for giving it back to the opponents with his bat, as well as the words.
During the second T20I against West Indies, Kohli pulled West Indies captain Kieron Pollard's leg with his one-liner. Although this time it wasn't a heated face-off or an exchange of words, but a friendly banter.

It was the eighth over of India's innings when Pollard attempted to run out his counterpart Rohit Sharma. Kohli then told Pollard that he can't get Rohit run out like that.
“Can’t run him out like that Polly", said Kohli during Roston Chase's over, which brought a smile on Rohit and Pollard's faces.
Kohli notched up 52 off 41 deliveries in the second T20I before getting out to Chase in the 14th over of the innings. It was his 30th half-century in T20Is and he has now equaled Rohit's tally of most fifty-plus scores in T20I cricket.
After the win in the second T20I, India have sealed the series 2-0 with one more match to be played on Sunday (February 20).
