Virat Kohli Signs Match Ball for Vishal Jayswal After Dismissal

Gujarat’s left-arm spinner Vishal Jayswal lived one of his most cherished moments when he dismissed star India batter Virat Kohli during the Vijay Hazare Trophy 2025-26 match. Kohli, playing for Delhi, was in commanding form with an impressive score of 77 runs off 61 deliveries before being outfoxed by Jayswal’s brilliant delivery. The dismissal came as Kohli attempted to step out of his crease to attack the spinner, only to be beaten by the flight and turn, resulting in a stumping.

A Dream Moment for Jayswal

The standout moment came when Kohli signed the match ball for Jayswal, who celebrated the achievement by sharing the photograph on social media. Jayswal expressed his gratitude through a heartfelt caption, saying it was surreal to take the wicket of his idol. “From watching him dominate world cricket to sharing the same field and taking his wicket is a moment I never imagined would turn into reality,” Jayswal wrote, adding that getting Kohli’s wicket was something he would cherish forever.

Exceptional Bowling Performance

Jayswal’s brilliance extended beyond dismissing Kohli, as he claimed an impressive haul of 4/42 in his ten overs. His victims included not only Kohli but also Rishabh Pant, Arpit Rana, and Nitish Rana, demonstrating his consistent performance throughout the match. Despite his exceptional bowling effort restricting Delhi to 254/9, Gujarat fell short in their chase, losing by seven runs after being bundled out for 247 in 47.4 overs.

Kohli was awarded the Player of the Match for his sublime innings, securing Delhi’s second consecutive victory of the tournament.
