In the IPL 2024 match between KKR and RCB, the spotlight fell on Virat Kohli’s dismissal, sparking intense debate and controversy. Kohli’s wicket, taken by Harshit Rana, ignited chaos on the field and triggered a series of discussions on social media platforms.
Unusual Circumstances
The manner of Kohli’s dismissal raised eyebrows as the ball delivered by Harshit Rana was a full toss, reaching Kohli at waist height.

Virat Kohli’s argument stemmed from his stance ahead of the crease, causing an increase in his height. As a result, Kohli contended that the ball’s trajectory, above waist height, should be considered a no-ball. However, the third umpire upheld the on-field decision, deeming the ball’s delivery legal.
Ongoing Debate
Kohli’s animated reaction, both on the field and in the dugout, coupled with commentary opinions and social media discussions, intensified the controversy surrounding his dismissal. Many voiced their support for Kohli’s viewpoint, suggesting that he was unfairly adjudged out, further fueling the debate over the contentious decision.
