Virat Kohli in 2015
Trending
The Indian Test captain has a reputation for being aggressive on the field. He likes to give it back to the opposition whenever they throw anything at him. But the star batsman got involved in a heated argument with Sri Lankan umpire Kumar Dharmasena during IPL 2015.
The 27-year-old cricketer was leading the Royal Challengers Bangalore in a rain-affected match against Sunrisers Hyderabad which was reduced to 11 overs per side. The incident took place during the last over of the Sunrisers’ innings.
Kohli tried to draw the attention of the umpires in the previous over as it started to rain but the officials opted to continue with the game. By the end of the over, the RCB captain walked towards Kumar Dharmasena and animatedly asked him why the match was not stopped.
Kohli was clearly furious about the decision. Another on-field umpire Anil Chaudhary tried to calm him down. Though Kohli didn’t carry the argument on for long, Dharmasena looked very upset with the incident.
