Watch: After Controversial Dismissal, Virat Kohli Loses Cool, Shouts At Umpire
During the IPL 2024 match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Kolkata Knight Riders Virat Kohli was left fuming after a controversial dismissal and the star India batter made his displeasure known to the on-field umpires.During the third over of the RCB innings, Harshit Rana delivered a slow full-toss and Kohli ended up giving a straight catch back to the bowler. However, Kohli was convinced that the ball was above his waist and he quickly went for a review.
The replays showed that Kohli was standing outside the crease and the ball was dipping enough to end up below the waist if Kohli was in his normal batting stance. As a result, third umpire Michael Gough ruled against RCB in this case.
By this decision Kohli was visibly upset and the disappointment was clear on the star batter’s face as he walked back to the dugout. skipper Faf Du Plessis of RCB continued to talk to the umpires about the decision and Kohli also came to the umpires and had an argument with them about the decision.

As he walked back the star batter was fuming and continued to say something before slamming his bat and gloves on the ground and hitting a dustbin at the Eden Gardens in the process.
