Watch: “You’re going to…” – Virat Kohli refuses to sign his comic toy for a surprising reason ahead of IND vs NZ 4th ODI

Former Team India captain and star batter Virat Kohli refused to sign a comic-style toy brought by a fan ahead of the fourth ODI against New Zealand. The incident took place after India's practice session at Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui on Friday, November 13. Kohli gave a surprising reason for not signing the toy, which caught the attention of fans.

India won the first two matches of the five-match series in Auckland and Wellington. However, the Men in Blue missed the chance to take an unassailable 3-0 lead after the third ODI was washed out due to heavy rain at Seddon Park in Hamilton.

All eyes will once again be on Kohli as he has been in good form throughout the series. Fans will be hoping to see the star batter score another century, especially as this could be his final tour of New Zealand.
