Jitesh Sharma’s captaincy innings gave Royal Challengers Bangalore a brilliant win against Lucknow Super Giants by 6 wickets. After this, RCB traveled to the league stage by staying second. There was a chance in this match when Kohli became so angry with Digvesh Rathi that he showed his anger by hitting a bottle on the glass. Its video is going viral on social media.

Chasing 228 runs, Virat Kohli and Phil Salat made a bang. When Salt (30) was out, RCB scored 61 runs in 5.4 overs. After this, RCB started coming under pressure due to the dismissal of Rajat Patidar (14), Liam Livingstone (0). Virat was dismissed for 54 runs in 30 balls, then the team needed 105 runs in 52 balls to win.

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.
