Former RCB skipper and batting stalwart, Virat Kohli and the veteran DC wicketkeeper-batter, KL Rahul, were seen in an animated argument during the DC vs RCB game at the Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi. It all happened in the second innings when RCB were chasing the target of 163 runs and Virat Kohli was there in the middle for his side, alongside the star all-rounder Krunal Pandya.
Virat Kohli was seen asking something to KL Rahul, and the latter was also responding to Kohli. However, it isn’t clear what prompted the argument, but KL Rahul stood his ground and was heard saying, “Time waste karunga toh mera hi nuksan hai (It will be my loss if I waste the time).
The video of this animated conversation between Virat Kohli and KL Rahul also went viral on social media as soon as it was shared by the official broadcasters on their official Instagram handle.
