The clip quickly spread online, drawing mixed reactions. Some users criticised Kohli, suggesting he could have acknowledged the child. One comment read, “Greatness is not only shown on the field, hitting runs, breaking records, flying kisses. It’s being humble and showing humility in times when you’re down and not in your best.” Another X user wrote, “Had it been some other foreign player, they would have returned on seeing the incident to autograph it…but not King Kohli.”

At the same time, many came to Kohli’s defence, shifting the focus to parenting and expectations. One user wrote, “Kid creating a ruckus. Do parents teach nothing? How is this kid throwing a bat and making so much noise?” Another said, “Parenting failed miserably. A child must ready to accept ‘NO’ in some circumstances. Providing each and every small thing will ruin your child’s competative approach. Major drawbacks will be seen when he grow older.” A more balanced take read, “It’s okay kid, you will learn hardways of life but let’s understand players prospective too. It happens sometimes.”

DC vs RCB:

While the off-field moment dominated online chatter, Kohli once again delivered on the pitch. Facing Delhi Capitals, Bengaluru’s bowlers, led by Bhuvneshwar Kumar and Josh Hazlewood, tore through the opposition early, reducing them to a shocking 8/6 inside the powerplay. Delhi never recovered and were bowled out for just 75.

Chasing a small total, RCB wrapped up the game in just 6.3 overs, with Kohli chipping in with a quick 23 off 15 balls. The knock also saw him achieve a major milestone, becoming the first player to cross 9,000 runs in IPL history.
