Virat Kohli stopped playing during the first Test against Australia when the former India captain’s six struck a security guard on the head in Perth.

Kohli was concerned when he found the boundary with the penultimate ball of the second innings, as his shot bounced just over the boundary cushions and caught the young security guard on the head while he was looking towards the crowd.

Rather than celebrating his first six of the match, Kohli directed the attention of the physios to the security guard as Australia spinner Nathan Lyon checked on him.

India declared their second innings closed at 487-6 late on day three, setting Australia a record victory target of 534 in the first test, with Kohli 100 not out.

The visitors have built a comprehensive lead in the opening match of the five-test series, having scored 150 in their first innings before bowling out Australia for 104.
