Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Faf Duplessis disagreed on Sunday, dismissal on Virat Kohli, saying that he believes that the full toss ball was at a height above the waist. Kohli, chasing the target against Kolkata Knight Riders, was dismissed by Harshit Rana's full toss ball in the third over. This bowler caught Kohli's catch.

The 'Hawk-I system' measuring no-ball from height is applicable in the IPL. Under this, no ball is decided by assessing the height of the ball from the height of the batsman's waist in the crease. Duplessis said after the match, 'It was disappointing, but rules are rules. Virat and I thought the ball was higher than the waist (during Kohli's dismissal). I think he assessed it from the popping (batting) crease. In such a situation, one team thinks that it is a no ball, then the thinking of another team is different. Many times the game goes on like this.

Kohli was out of the crease while playing the shot and the ball was above his waist, but she was coming downwards. TV umpire Michael Goff examined height and according to Hawk-I tracking, if Kohli were in the crease, the ball would have passed near the height of 0.92 meters near the waist. In this situation the ball would be below Kohli's waist height (1.04 m).

In such a situation, Goff found the height of the ball below the height of Kohli's waist and called him out on the scale of ball tracking. Kohli, however, did not seem to agree with this decision, he spoke to the field umpire with anger -like anger. Even after exiting the field, his face could be seen disappointed.

• Was Kohli really out?

A mixed reaction has been seen on social media for Kohli's dismissal. Some fans say that the umpire has given a wrong decision and Kohli was not out, while some users say that Kohli had gone out of the crease, so the decision of the umpire is correct. However, during the commentary, the commentators also said that Kohli was slightly ahead of the crease.
