“Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth,” posted Virat Kohli in his Instagram story referring to the quote attributed to Roman emperor Marcus Aurelius Antoninus.
The altercation happened at the Bharat Ratna Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Cricket Stadium here after RCB bowled LSG out for 108, scoring 126/9 in 20 overs, with KL Rahul batting through a leg injury in an unsuccessful attempt to take his side to victory.
Kohli had celebrated the fall of the LSG wickets during their innings in his trademark animated aggression. He was seen blowing kisses to the crowd.
The Royal Challengers Bangalore batter Kohli and the Lucknow Super Giants’ Team mentor Gambhir both admitted to the Level 2 offence under Article 2.21 of the IPL Code of Conduct.
