5 current Indian cricketers with poor disciplinary record
These players ended up facing the wrath of the BCCI and the ICC.
5. Virat Kohli
Virat Kohli has arguably been India’s standout batter across formats for over a decade. However, controversies have hardly left his side in his career. In numerous instances, he got fined for breaching the code of conduct.
In January 2018, he was fined 25 per cent of his match fees after his behaviour with umpire Michael Gough during a Test match against South Africa at the SuperSport Park in Centurion. The now 32-year-old also received a demerit point for the same.
In September 2019, he got one demerit point and an official warning after he made shoulder contact with South Africa fast bowler Beuran Hendricks. He was charged with breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct.
Back in 2012 when Kohli was only into his second year of Test cricket, he decided to flick a middle finger at the crowd during a Test match against Australia at the Sydney Cricket Ground.
