Virat Kohli, the batting sensation of India, went viral with his tirade against the Australian reporter who was filming him with his wife and children. For his actions towards the female reporter who filmed him at the airport upon his arrival in Melbourne, the sports legend has been branded a bully by a Channel 7 reporter.
In preparation for the fourth Border-Gavaskar Test, the Indian squad has landed in Melbourne. There is still time for the Boxing Day Test, but it appears that some drama has already occurred at
The airport when the Indian team lands in the city and Virat loses his temper with an Australian reporter.
But this hasn’t stopped Tony Jones, a reporter for Channel 7, from openly criticising the Indian icon for this incident and calling him a bully.
According to Hindustan Times, Jones stated, “Nat was out there with a cameraman, a Channel 7 reporter was out there with his cameraman, and they were doing what we do on a daily basis, and that is be at the airport to actually get identities, whether they are politicians, whether they are sporting identities, or whatever.”
When I saw the video, what really made me laugh was when he turned to face the three men—the two cameramen and the Channel 7 reporter—and stated, “You guys are fine, it’s her.” Actually? After standing over Nat Yoannidis, a girl who is roughly five feet one and five feet two, the big, tough Virat scolded her mercilessly. Virat, all you are is a bully. Jones continued.
When it comes to Virat’s performance, except from the century in Perth, this hasn’t been his greatest series in Australia. With a run of poor results in the last two Test matches, the two-time World Champion has only managed to score 126 runs and average 31.50.
