    The captain of the Indian cricket team, Virat Kohli, is known for many things, but having a poker face is not one of them. Following a 3-1 win in the Test series and 3-2 T20I series, as the Men in Blue look to defeat the touring England side in the second ODI on Friday, Kohli’s excitement continues to become more and more obvious in the eyes of the spectators.
    From reacting animatedly to his own shots against England bowlers to letting the on-field umpires hear an earful after getting in a war of words with the opponents, Kohli’s behaviour on the groundΒ has become a major talking-point especially in the past couple of months.

    β€” cricBC (@cricBC) March 20, 2021Under such circumstances, when England all-rounder Ben StokesΒ was asked about his thoughts on the Indian batsman’s decorum (or the lack of it), he did not hold back in responding.
    "Every team and every player has a certain way of operating in the field, which makes them successful. As a team over the last four-five years, that's not the way that works for us," Stokes said ahead of the second ODI match in Pune.

    β€” ESPNcricinfo (@ESPNcricinfo) March 25, 2021"We stick to what we do best and what we make is to build a better side. Each team is entitled to their own way of operations. India have there and we have ours," he added.
    "Personally, I prefer Virat doesn't get runs, because that's not good for us," he said.
    A few fans of the Indian cricket team even ended up agreeing with Stokes’ take:
    That’s what he’s been doing in last 18 months or so, hardly remember any significant score of Virat in recent times, no international 100 since November 2019.

    β€” Rajendra Mohanty (@rajendra2411) March 25, 2021Struggling to stitch big innings together for long now, Virat Kohli rediscovered his form during the T20I series of which he was also named the β€˜Player of the Series’ and continued to play the first 50-over match in Pune with the same aggression before lofting a dolly into the hands of Moeen Ali while sitting at a 56-run innings.
    While Stokes has been phenomenal for the England team, especially with the ball, his first-ODI innings came to a disappointing end after facing just 11 deliveries and scoring a solitary run. Winning the second match becomes imperative for England if they wish to keep their dream of winning the ODI series alive.
