Royal Challengers Bangalore played their second match of the ongoing IPL 2024 season at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bangalore, where RCB emerged victorious by four wickets courtesy of a masterful knock by Virat Kohli.
However, it wasn't just Kohli's knock that was the highlight of the match. A video circulating on social media showed a fan breaching security and entering the ground to meet Virat Kohli during RCB's innings. Security personnel swiftly removed them from the ground. Later, visuals emerged where the individual who breached the security could be seen being beaten brutally, sparking outrage among cricket fans worldwide.
A user shared a viral video on 'X,' tagging RCB's official account, expressing outrage.. The user questioned the behavior, stating that such actions undermine the law's purpose, and suggested alternatives to deal with the situation.

You don't have the right to touch anyone. Then what's the use of Law?
You can keep him in Jail/ Fine but you're attacking him in the stadium 🏟️ itself

Coming to the match, it was Dinesh Karthik's brilliant cameo of 28 runs off ten balls after Kohli's sensational 49-ball 77, which sealed the deal for RCB. The situation looked tight, and it seemed like Punjab would secure the game, especially after the departure of Kohli.

"It's been going on for years (love story with fans at Chinnaswamy). People talk about a lot of other things when you play sport - achievement, stats, numbers. But when you look back it's the memories you create. Rahul bhai in the change room says the same nowadays. When you play, play your heart out because you're going to miss these times. The love, appreciation and backing I've received has been amazing," Kohli said in the post-match presentation.
