Virat Kohli was livid after being dismissed against Sunrisers Hyderabad.
Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) captain Virat Kohli was furious after getting out against Sunrisers Hyderabad (SRH) on Wednesday (April 14). He took 29 balls to score 33 runs with a strike rate of 113.79 before getting out to Jason Holder.
The 32-year-old has been reprimanded for breaching the IPL Code of Conduct and he has accepted it.

"Kohli admitted to the Level 1 offense 2.2 of the IPL's Code of Conduct. For Level 1 breaches of the Code of Conduct, the Match Referee's decision is final and binding," said the IPL in a statement.
Vengalil Narayan Kutty was the match referee for RCB and SRH's face-off, while Nitin Menon and Ulhas Gandhe were the on-field umpires.
Kohli had top-edged a short ball from Holder to be caught in the deep by Vijay Shankar. The RCB skipper couldn't control his anger and he ended up smashing a chair with a bat while walking back to the dugout.
