The incident transpired in the 17th over when Virat Kohli had hit a ball straight towards Shakib Al Hasan and Dinesh Karthik went for a run but was caught out of his crease, leading to a run out.
Virat Kohli looked baffled with the commentator saying “Virat Kohli is saying, where is the run?” while Dinesh Karthik made a gesture which could be interpreted as the playing telling Kohli to look at him before attempting a run.
With that run out, Dinesh Karthik’s disappointing World Cup campaign continues with the batter scoring just 7 in this match.
