Cricket is called the gentleman's game. Over the years, Mashrafe, Kallis, Sachin have become its brand ambassadors in the world sports arena. And this time, one of the ambassadors is Virat Kohli. Yes, don't hear wrong! Kohli, who was criticized by many due to his aggressive behavior at the start of his career, has now set a unique example, proving why cricket is called a gentleman's game.

The second match of the two-match Test series between hosts South Africa and visiting India is underway in Cape Town. Protea captain Dean Elgar will end his international career with this match. In a cruel twist of fate, Elgar played his two innings on the first day of the Cape Town Test. This match saw the fall of 23 wickets on the first day, where Elgar scored 4 runs off 15 balls in the first innings and 12 runs off 28 balls in the second innings.

When Kohli took the catch at first slip, the Indian audience, bowlers, fielders all started cheering. But that's when Kohli raised his hand and forbade his teammates, don't celebrate! He bowed his head and showed that Cornish should inform Elgar. Then all the Indian cricketers rushed to Elgar's side. Instead of cheering, the Protea patted the star on the back and said a beautiful farewell.

Kohli's tribute to Elgar playing the farewell innings has touched the hearts of the cricket world.
