For those who may have forgotten, in 2008, during India's Under-19 World Cup semifinal matchup against New Zealand, Virat Kohli claimed a spectacular wicket of Kane Williamson.

Considering the Men in Blue are all set to go up against the Black Caps in the ongoing World Cup semi-final against New Zealand at Wankhede Stadium, the video of Kohli’s success against Williamson surfaced again.

More significantly, it happened because the talismanic batsman just got a wicket after a long time on Sunday during India’s final league match against the Netherlands in Bengaluru.

Interestingly, both Kohli’s wickets, although in a different way of dismissal, came while the ball was going down the leg side. Back then, Williamson was stumped by the wicket-keeper Tanmay Srivastava. This time around, KL Rahul took an excellent catch with the big gloves to bring joy to fans at M. Chinnaswamy Stadium as well as to Kohli.

Will Kohli repeat the same against Williamson when India take on New Zealand on November 15 in Mumbai? It is very unlikely, but hopefully, he will roll his arms yet again if required.
