Why Virat Kohli got angry at Digvesh

Jitesh Sharma and Mayank Agarwal, captaining against Lucknow, started having a good partnership, Lucknow was losing despite a big score. Meanwhile, Digvesh Rathi tried to dismiss Jitesh on non-stroke end under ‘Mankadig’. However, it is run out. If the non-strayer comes out of the crease before putting the ball in it, the bowler can appeal for a run out by hitting it on the stump without putting the ball. Digvesh did the same.

However, the third umpire found that the bowler’s leg had overtaken the popping crease, so it was given not out while Lucknow captain Rishabh Pant withdrew the appeal. But when the umpire asked about the appeal to the bowler and Digvesh said that yes he is appealing, Virat Kohli, sitting in the dressing room, became so angry that he hit the bottle on the glass in front. He was also seen speaking something during this time.
