Yash Dhull had been dismissed by Rahul Sharma and Virat Kohli, back in Ranji whites for Delhi, was striding to the crease with a familiar, purposeful swagger. The stay was brief, it lasted all of 15 balls.

Virat Kohli's last Ranji Trophy appearance for Delhi dates back to an entirely different era in Indian cricket, before his meteoric rise in the Tst set-up over the previos decade.

It was an occasion to remember for the Sanat Sangwans, Arpit Ranas and Siddhant Sharmas but for Virat Kohli it was business as usual.
