There was an interesting moment between Royal Challengers Bangalore star players Virat Kohli and Cameron Green during their IPL 2024 match against Kolkata Knight Riders at the M Chinnaswamy Stadium on Friday. Virat smashed an unbeaten 83 off 59 balls in his first innings to surpass SunRisers Hyderabad’s Heinrich Klaasen to become the IPL 2024’s leading run-scorer. Kohli, who ended up giving both his cap and the microphone to the Indian player.

The moment took an interesting turn when the commentator said he wanted to talk to Green instead of Kohli. The former RCB skipper then laughed and threw the microphone at Green and the Australian dismissed Kohli in an entertaining manner.

Venkatesh Iyer scored 50 to keep the momentum going before being caught by Kohli, while Shreyas made 39.
