Virat Kohli was unhappy after he got out on Wednesday night, and he let that show while coming back to the pavilion. A chair in the hole bore the RCB captain’s wrath, as Virat Kohli hit the chair in force while making his way to the dressing room.
Various fans posted clips of Virat Kohli, where the captain is seen hitting the chair with his bat.

Virat Kohli was clearly cross after his dismissal in the 13th over of the SRH vs RCB game. Virat Kohli had gotten itself in, and looked set for a big hit after playing out 28 deliveries. But the RCB skipper lost his wicket on the right next to the ball, a top-edging one as he tested to swat a ball to the leg side.
Vijay Shankar ran in from deep and takes a great catch, as Jason Holder sacked Virat Kohli for a 29 ball 33. The 32-year-old’s trouble was there for everyone to see, with the captain disappointed with himself for being dismissed after getting set.
As he walked back, it was the unhappy chair that bore the brunt of his anger. Even though the reason for his sadness isn’t clear, it seems the RCB skipper was disappointed after failing to convert his start against SRH.
Even though Virat Kohli is known for giving it all on the cricket field, he hardly allows his feelings to get the better of him these days. While he carried the image of an ‘Angry Young Man’ as a youngster, fans have been addressing a calmer Virat Kohli in recent years.

After Virat Kohli was out in T20 match on 14 th April against SRH, his behavior went wild when he was approaching the pavilion. A player like Kohli should behave well and shoud not try to damage chairs. Very sad for ugly behavior.
