Chennai: Royal Challengers Bangalore captain Virat Kohli was found guilty of violating the BCCI’s anti-corruption code after he met his girlfriend Anushka Sharma at the stands during an IPL cricket match in Bangalore but let off as the breach was found to be a minor one, according to a report. Kohli was seen interacting with Anushka, who was standing in the VIP enclosure, during the match against Delhi at Bengaluru on Sunday.
Kohli was informed of the infringement by BCCI anti-corruption unit head Ravi Sawani and let off as it was found to be a minor one, a report in the ESPNcricinfo said. The exact code Kohli broke was 5.1.2(c) which reads: “Whilst outside of the PMOA, the Player, Player Support Personnel or Match Official must only communicate with those third parties with whom he/she has permission to communicate and only engage in such communications as are necessary for the completion of such purposes as have been approved.”
