In a cricket match, it's important to stay calm and be able to think clearly, especially under pressure. Regrettably, Virat Kohli didn't follow suit when he engaged in a verbal exchange with the on-field umpire after Delhi's Abishek Porel was deemed not out by the third umpire Nitin Menon.
In the second over's first delivery, Mohammed Siraj delivered a splendid in-swinger to Abishek Porel. Porel managed to jam his bat down as the ball headed towards the third man. Siraj seemed confident that the ball had made contact with Porel's pad and signaled to RCB skipper Faf-du Plessis for a DRS review. After deliberation by third umpire Nitin Menon, it was ruled that the ball had brushed Porel's bat, overturning RCB's decision and declaring him not out.
Upon witnessing the decision, Virat Kohli marched from his mid-off position to engage in a heated argument with on-field umpire Vineet Kulkarni. Kohli passionately argued that there was a clear gap between the bat and the ball, emphasizing that the bat was not involved. However, the umpire remained steadfast despite RCB's protestations, and the match progressed accordingly.
Social media was abuzz with reactions from the Twitterverse, quickly discussing the contentious moment.
Kohli is not happy
