Virat Kohli<\/span> was once more on the focus through the intense clash between <\/span>Royal Challengers Bengaluru<\/span> and <\/span>Sunrisers Hyderabad<\/span> on Friday night. Chasing an enormous goal of 256, Kohli looked under pressure and visibly frustrated during his short time on the crease. Even after the match ended, the emotions appeared to proceed as he appeared to avoid a usual handshake with <\/span>Travis Head<\/span>through the post-match greetings.<\/span><\/p>\n When the RCB players went to congratulate the SRH team after the loss, Head stretched out his hand towards Kohli. Nonetheless, Kohli walked past him and continued greeting the opposite SRH players without responding to the Australian opener. The incident quickly went viral on social media.<\/span><\/p>\n Uncomfortable to look at extreme bad behavior by a person of such stature didn\u2019t expect this from Virat Kohli #SRHvsRCB<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/cTfMV9RuDD<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 AVNISH \ud83c\uddee\ud83c\uddf3 (@avnishh26) May 22, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Earlier within the match, the stress was already visible when <\/span>Venkatesh Iyer<\/span> began attacking the SRH bowlers, especially during an aggressive over against <\/span>Shivang Kumar<\/span>. A viral video from the third over showed <\/span>Virat Kohli<\/span> turning towards <\/span>Travis Head<\/span> between deliveries and having a vigorous exchange on the sphere.<\/span><\/p>\n Kohli was seen pointing at Head and jokingly asking him to come back and bowl, while also making the Impact Player gesture to tease him. Head, who has mostly played as an Impact Player this season and hasn\u2019t spent much time on the sphere usually, stayed involved within the match after <\/span>Sunrisers Hyderabad replaced<\/span>\u00a0Salil Arora with <\/span>Harshal Patel<\/span>, adding much more excitement to the already intense game.<\/span><\/p>\n #ViratKohli<\/a> \ud83c\udd9a #TravisHead<\/a> \ud83e\udd75\ud83e\udd2f<\/p>\n Tensions rise in high voltage clash\ud83d\udd25#TATAIPL<\/a> Race to Playoffs 2026 \ud83d\udc49 #SRHvRCB<\/a> | LIVE NOW \u27a1\ufe0fhttps:\/\/t.co\/52qPTW2gSO<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/JOiWaxNW6T<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Star Sports (@StarSportsIndia) May 22, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n Meanwhile, <\/span>Virat Kohli<\/span> couldn’t stay long on the crease and was dismissed for just 15 runs within the last over of the powerplay by <\/span>Sakib Hussain<\/span>. The RCB batter was fooled by a slower ball while attempting to play an enormous shot straight down the bottom, but he did not connect it properly. <\/span><\/p>\n The mistimed shot went on to <\/span>Smaran Ravichandran<\/span> contained in the circle, who took a simple catch to finish Kohli\u2019s short innings in disappointing fashion. Later within the match, <\/span>Travis Head<\/span> was also brought in to bowl the second-last over when the sport was almost in <\/span>Sunrisers Hyderabad<\/span>\u2019s control. He managed to choose up the wicket of <\/span>Rajat Patidar<\/span> as well.<\/span><\/p>\n Get the most recent cricket news here, like us on Facebook<\/a>, and follow us on Twitter<\/a> and Instagram <\/a>for more such updates.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n
