Kohli acknowledged fan's gesture; incident became talking point.

The incident occurred while Kohli was seated in the Indian dugout, with the batter appearing relaxed as he followed the action from the sidelines.
Fans in the stands began chanting Kohli's name, creating a familiar atmosphere around the former India captain even though he was not involved in the action at that particular moment.
One supporter then took the interaction a step further. The fan removed a shoe and held it up towards Kohli, apparently wanting to show the Indian star that he was wearing a one8 pair.
Kohli noticed the gesture and looked towards the fan before reacting to the unexpected display. The moment provided a light-hearted interruption during the match.
The unusual exchange was captured on video and quickly became a talking point among cricket followers. Kohli's reaction, rather than any on-field action, became the focus of the clip.
Kohli Remains A Major Attraction Among Indian Fans
The episode once again highlighted the level of attention Kohli continues to receive whenever he is around the Indian team.
Even from the dugout, the former captain remained a prominent presence at the venue, with supporters repeatedly chanting his name during the contest.
Kohli has developed a particularly strong connection with Indian cricket fans over the course of his international career. His popularity extends beyond his performances, with supporters frequently finding creative ways to catch his attention.
The one8 reference made this particular interaction even more distinctive, as the fan chose to showcase footwear associated with Kohli's own brand directly to the cricketer.
While the India-West Indies match remained the main event, the brief dugout interaction gave fans another memorable moment to discuss from the third ODI.
