During Gujarat Titans vs Royal Challengers Bangalore IPL match on Thursday, Virat Kohli's gentle side was seen.
When GT batter Matthew Wade was walking back after a debatable LBW decision, Kohli placed his hand around his shoulder to calm him down.
Matthew got angry and started walking toward the dressing room over the crucial move during the match at Wankhede stadium. Virat Kohli's consoling attempt during the scenario not only seems to have cheered Wade but also netizens.
As they say, cricket is a gentleman's game... Wade did get into trouble for his aggressive behavior as he threw his helmet in the GT dressing room, and smashed his bat a couple of times. He was reprimanded by IPL for his outburst of emotions.
According to the IPL Code of Conduct, the wicketkeeper-batter was found guilty of a Level 1 offence. Here's how netizens reacted on Twitter:
