Five infamous controversies Virat Kohli got into

#4 – Abusing a journalist and apologizing later on

Back in 2015 during the ICC World Cup, Virat Kohli was back in the news during a press conference in Perth. There was a lot being written about Kohli and Anushka by the journalists as the brouhaha surrounding the couple was way too humongous.

Kohli was unhappy with one of the Hindustan Times’ articles written on Anushka and Kohli being Kohli didn’t stop himself from reacting vociferously. He apparently yelled at the journalist and used some expletives as well, which sparked a huge row. But there was no official confirmation from any sources that he used cuss words.

This incident ended up embarrassing Kohli as he later learned that he yelled at the wrong journalist. His misconstrued judgment made him a victim of various trolls, but he later came out and apologized as well.
