India cricket captain Virat Kohli got irritated over a silly question during the press conference after the second Test. Kohli had celebrated Kane Williamson's wicket with full aggression and the journalist wanted to know about it. 

Kohli wasn't too pleased with the question which tried to show there is a rift among them. But the India skipper questioned the journo back and asked him what he thinks could be the reason?

"What do you think? I am asking you the answer," the irritation was writ large on Indian skipper's face as he came up with a sharp retort.

"You need to find out an answer and come up with a better question. You can't come here with half questions and half details of what happened. Also if you want to create controversy, this is not the right place. I spoke with the match referee (Madugalle) and he had no issues with what happened," said Kohli.

New Zealand skipper Williamson knows Virat plays the game with passion. He was asked about the question on which Kane laughed it off, saying, "It is Virat and he is passionate on the field. I don't think we need to read too much into it."

It was the second day of the last Test when Jasprit Bumrah found Williamson's edge which resulted in his wicket. Kohli was pumped and he celebrated the vital wicket at a situation when India was desperate for a comeback.
