IPL 2021 | Virat Kohli Reprimanded For Smashing A Chair In Frustration After Being Dismissed By SRH
Kohli was not at his fluent best in the game on Wednesday and ended up with 33 off 29 balls. His team won the game by six runs.
Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli has been reprimanded for breaching the IPL's Code of Conduct after he was seen kicking a chair in frustration following his dismissal in the game against Sunrisers Hyderabad here.
Kohli was not at his fluent best in the game on Wednesday and ended up with 33 off 29 balls. His team won the game by six runs.
"Kohli admitted to the Level 1 offence 2.2 of the IPL's Code of Conduct. For Level 1 breaches of the Code of Conduct, the Match Referee's decision is final and binding," said the IPL in a statement.
Captain Kohli got out after a slow-paced inning of 32 (29). He just hit four 4s in his innings of 29 balls. He got out to a short-pitched delivery by Jason Holder. Virat wasn’t very happy with the way things transpired and on his way back to the dug-out, he hit a chair that was kept lying near the dug-out.
As you can see in the video, Virat Kohli first hit the boundary rope with his bat, and then in frustration, he thrashed the chair on his way.
This display of sudden anger is not new for the Indian captain.
