Virat Kohli has built a reputation for being an aggressive competitor on the field. However, on Saturday (November 13), the world of cricket saw a different side of him.

In the process, Gurnoor Brar might be saved from getting a possible ban from the ICC after he was involved in a fiery exchange with Tim Seifert.

Virat Kohli Plays Peacemaker For Gurnoor Brar-Tim Seifert Face-Off

Tim Seifert smashed Brar for a six, then hit two fours in the seventh over of the innings. Immediately after, they exchanged a few words.

Soon after, when Brar returned to bowling during the 12th over of the innings, he took the wicket of Seifert, who made a well-crafted 48-ball 58. To give him an angry send-off, Brar seemed to get very close to Seifert as the returned to the pavilion.

And then Kohli had to come to stop. He pushed Brar back to avoid any further damage. Had Virat Kohli not intervened, Brar might have received a potential match ban.

Watch the whole drama here:

It was not the first time that Brar lost his cool. He sledged Blair Tickner during the first ODI between the two sides.

Brar’s aggression has always been a topic of conversation since the beginning of the season. He found success in the IND vs NZ 2nd ODI, taking four wickets, but his temperament needs to be under control if the Men in Blue are to build a longer run.

Brar May Still Face ICC Ban For His Doings

However, Gurnoor Brar might still face an ICC ban for his actions. He was unnecessarily close to Seifert, who was calmly returning to the pavilion.

If the ICC finds out that Brar breached the Code of Conduct, he will be penalised. As of now, he will definitely receive a fine from his match fees.

Kohli, meanwhile, will have a big job to do during the second half of the innings. At the time of writing, New Zealand are 178/3 after 26 overs, and he may need to last long to see off the potentially challenging target.
