5 times Virat Kohli had an on-field altercation with the opposition

Kohli vs Rubel Hossain (2011)

Rubel Hossain gestures at Kohli after picking up his wicket in the 2015 World Cup

Playing his first World Cup, Virat Kohli scored a century in his first game against Bangladesh as India stacked up a huge score batting first. Kohli defended a ball back to Rubel Hossain, who gathered the ball in his follow-through and stared at Kohli. The batsman retaliated with a mouthful, dishing out the choicest of expletives, the gist of which was requesting the bowler to go back and bowl.

Hossain later conceded that he and Kohli had a history of spats which went back to the U-19 World Cup in 2008. The two were involved in another heated argument then, which was quelled only after the on-field umpires intervened.
