A tense moment between Virat Kohli and Travis Head during the IPL 2026 match between Royal Challengers Bengaluru and Sunrisers Hyderabad sparked major controversy after Kohli appeared to ignore Head’s post-match handshake. The drama reportedly began during RCB’s chase when the two exchanged heated words on the field. Reports claim Head challenged Kohli aggressively, prompting a sharp response from the RCB star. Former India cricketer Irfan Pathan later said the incident “could’ve been avoided,” adding that Kohli’s intense, aggressive approach often mirrors Australian-style competitiveness. The viral moment quickly triggered debates across social media and cricket circles. (PC: NDTV)
