IPL 2024: Virat And I Thought The Ball Was Higher Than His Waist, Says Faf Du Plessis
After Royal Challengers Bengaluru: After Royal Challengers Bengaluru fell agonisingly short of beating Kolkata Knight Riders in Match 36 of Indian Premier League (IPL) 2024, skipper Faf du Plessis addressed Virat Kohli’s angry outburst over his dismissal, saying the duo felt the ball’s height was higher than the waist length.
In the chase of 223, Kohli was off the blocks quickly by hitting two sixes and a four. But Kohli lobbed a slower high full-toss from Harshit Rana back to the bowler, and the decision was sent to third umpire Michael Gough.
The review system showed that the ball was dipping on Kohli, who was batting out of his crease, via a procedure where they match the height of a batter up to his waist with the height of the ball, leaving Kohli livid as he made his displeasure known to umpires before walking off for 18.
