Kohli has written a letter to BCCI
According to the report, in the match between RCB and Lucknow, Mohammad Siraj had made Naveen-ul-Haq angry with his bouncer. Kohli has mentioned in his letter that he had asked Siraj to bowl only bouncers and not to hit Naveen.
Kohli hurt by the fine
Kohli, however, feels that his behavior was not such that he was fined so heavily. The amount of this fine for Kohli will be around Rs 1.25 crore. Now the question arises whether the fine imposed on Kohli will be deducted from his salary or his franchise RCB will pay this amount. So the answer is that Virat will not have to pay even a penny. It is the policy of Royal Challengers Bangalore, they do not deduct the match fees of the player for any kind of dispute on the field. In case of fine, the franchisee pays the money himself.
