Royal Challengers Bangalore star batsman Virat Kohli was seen having a little spat with Punjab Kings left-arm spinner Harpreet Brar during the IPL 2026 clash between the two teams on Sunday.
This clash is important for both the teams as RCB will qualify for the playoffs with a win, while Punjab Kings will have to avoid their sixth consecutive defeat.
Virat Kohli targeted Harpreet Brar
The incident occurred during the ninth over of RCB’s innings in Dharamshala. During the final delivery of the over bowled by Azmatullah Omarzai, Virat Kohli played a cut towards the backward point region and headed for a single.
Harpreet Brar managed to field the ball near the 30-yard circle, but Kohli remained outside his crease and returned from halfway without completing the single. Kohli was seen pushing Brar and challenging him to run out. Brar did not oblige.
