Royal Challengers Bangalore batter Virat Kohli was part of a massive verbal altercation with multiple Lucknow Super Giants players after RCB registered an 18-run win. After a poor batting performance, the Bangalore-based franchise posted a total of 126 runs. 

But then with the ball, RCB bowlers brought out their a-game with stellar performances. From Mohammed Siraj to  Harshal Patel, almost every bowler managed to pick up a wicket. Thanks to this effort, Bangalore managed to register an 18-run win. 

But after the match ended all hell broke lose as Virat Kohli was involved in a heated exchange with LSG players like Naveen-ul-Haq and Kyle Mayers.  In an attempt to cool down the situation, LSG support staff led by Gautam Gambhir and KL Rahul stepped in and were able to defuse the situation.

After this altercation, Krunal Pandya came up for the match prediction as KL Rahul was still dealing with his leg injury. Addressing the match, Pandya spoke about how the teams had a great bowling performance but the batters failed to execute their plans. Talking about Rahul's injury, Pandya stated that the Indian international had pulled his hip flexor.

He said, "We did pretty well, restricting them to 126 was a great bowling effort. Really happy with how we have bowled in this tournament. We would have taken 126 but batting-wise we did not execute our plans. It is such a sad thing he pulled his hip flexor. I don't know how bad it is, the medical team will assess it."
