India's iconic cricketer, Virat Kohli, stormed back to form with a blistering half-century on Day 3 of the first Test against Australia in Perth. Kohli came onto the field after the departure of Devdutt Padikkal. Kohli then forged a partnership of 38 runs with Jaiswal before the latter was dismissed by Mitchell Marsh. Rishabh Pant and Dhruv Jurel also followed Jaiswal to the pavilion early but Kohli held one end together, scoring a much-needed half-century. En route to his fifty, Kohli scored only one six, which came off Mitchell Starc.

Kohli, facing a short delivery by the Australia pacer, decided to unleash an uppercut, a short he doesn't play too often. The ball dropped just beyond the boundary, earning Virat a six, but a worrying situation emerged when it bounced and hit the security guard, sitting on the sidelines, on his head. Here's the video:

As Kohli looked worried for the security official, a few Australian players (fielding near that area) also went to check the guard's well being. A medical official also arrived at the place of the incident and checked if the guard was alright.
