Fan Breaches Security During 2nd Test, Tries To Kiss Virat Kohli

Written by Abhishek Patil

During the second Test in Hyderabad, an over-enthusiastic fan breached the security at the Rajiv Gandhi International Stadium on Friday to take a selfie with team india captain Virat Kohli. The fan even tried to plant a kiss on the Indian star’s cheek but was fortunately escorted off.

Kohli was fielding at mid-wicket at the time with 15 overs bowled on Day 1 of the second Test. The young fan ran on to the field and embraced Kohli, then took out his phone and tried to capture a selfie.

Kohli didn’t look pleased and tried to maintain his distance before security personnel hauled the fan off the field. With play delayed by the incident, the umpires called for the drinks break.

A similar incident had happened during the first Test in Rajkot also when Kohli was surrounded by two pitch invaders trying to take selfies.
