Article 2.8 says that “It shall not be a defence to any charge brought under this Article to show that the umpire might have, or in fact did, get any decision wrong.”

If charged, Kohli could have a Level 1 or Level 2 offence brought against him, which could lead to an imposition of between one and four demerit points.
