A user tagged a phone manufacturer and asked Kohli to send a new phone to keep him away from stress before the start of the India-Australia Test series.

Meanwhile, the Indian team is sweating it out in the nets ahead of the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy to be played in Nagpur from February 9.
Apart from Nagpur, Delhi, Dharamsala and Ahmedabad will also host Tests during the series.
meanwhile east India Head coach Ravi Shastri feels Kohli could prove to be a thorn in Australia’s side should he start the Border-Gavaskar Trophy on a positive note.
He said, ‘His (Kohli’s) record against Australia will motivate him. He will be charged and will want to start well. You should look at his first two innings. If he starts well, he will prove to be a thorn in the side for the Australian team. He would definitely like that to happen.
“Kohli averages less than 50 against Australia. Amazing record, which should really keep him going,” he added.
