Not for nothing is Virat Kohli adored so much by fans. With the perfect game and just the right amount of aggression needed, he has brought a new spark to the game. Scoring boundaries both on and off the field, this bad boy knows well how to win at life. So when he opted out of the India-Australia Test due to a shoulder injury, we were a little bummed. But the Indian skipper made his appearance on the field as the water boy and carried drinks for the team.

And of course, the crowd at the stadium went berserk, and so did Twitter.

The most talented water boy ever!

Stat: No other water boy in the world has scored 10000+ international runs.

People were quick to point out that Tendulkar too had served drinks to his teammates on the field

Like they say, the tree that bears the most fruit is the one that bends the most

Then Sachin Tendulkar was carrying drinks for his team mates in Bangalore Test v AUS. (in2004) (due to tennis elbow)

Mohammad Kaif couldn’t resist appreciating the Indian skipper

This commitment from Virat the only highlight of the first session for India.
Good batting track but Aus helped by wayward bowling.#IndvAus pic.twitter.com/dNYlWe11Sq
