HYDERABAD: There can be disturbances in a cricket match, with thousands of spectators pouring
in just to see their favourite cricketers. But it is not often that a cricketer has to point towards the distraction, that too twice.

This is what happened in the post-lunch session of the India-Bangladesh Test. India skipper Virat Kohli was disturbed by a group of kids standing in the N Shivlal Yadav Pavilion, just above the sight screen. They were waving the Tricolour, which must have caused problems to the batsman. This forced the police and BCCI officials to intervene. The matter come to a close shortly after that, with a bit of a scene
involving cops asking the kids to move.
