IPL 2024 controversy: Virat Kohli’s dismissal ignites storm

The controversy surrounding the 2024 IPL series due to Virat Kohli being dismissed caused big turmoil among his fans. While confronting Royal Challengers Bengaluru against Kolkata Knight Riders, Regardless of the pleas of the RCB camp, Kohli was unfortunate to get out as the umpires failed to call it 2 wide lengths of the line.

The incident happened at the moment Kohli victimized a belt-high full toss; this was one of those deliveries that players expect to be declared as no-ball. In the try, however, but umpire surprisingly declared it as a legal shot, having a heated discussion between Kohli and the umpire. Despite the third umpire overruling the LBW decision, Kohli was not happy with the verdict and left the field.

Hawk-Eye technology assisted in unveiling the reason for his/her wrongful dismissal. As the ball was off stance above the waist height, but the high point of the bouncer was too late to the point of impact, the trajectory has suggested that the wicket-keeper would soon have been deemed to have caught it below the waist had Kohli been inside his crease. An explanation from Star Sports, the TV rights holder of the IPL, was released, with the clarification that the action was not contrary to the official rules.

Kohli’s wicket was detrimental for Bengaluru, yet its players kept chasing what they desired. Phenomenal innings by Will Jacks and Rajat Patidar and the fifties ensured RCB’s condition improved. Nevertheless, their efforts ended up just one run short after our team was defeated in an absolute nail-biter.
