The controversy surrounding Virat Kohli’s abusive behaviour with an Indian journalist refused to subside today despite the team management’s efforts to play it down with complaints being made to the ICC and BCCI about the episode.
The BCCI Secretary Anurag Thakur said that it was a case of misunderstanding and the issue should be put to rest immediately to let the team focus on the World Cup.
“He (Kohli) has clarified on the issue. For India, the ongoing World Cup is very important. We need to put all these issues to rest and indirectly has communicated that he misunderstood the situation. Let’s put this matter to an end,” Thakur said when asked about the incident.
