Virat Kohli and Jonathan Trott were involved in a verbal duel during the fourth day of the final Test between India and England on Sunday.
Trott, batting on 43 in England‘s second innings total of 123 for three, tried to cut a short delivery from pacer Ishant Sharma which was taken behind by Mahendra Singh Dhoni who threw it up high in the air in delight only to see his claim and that of other team members rejected by umpire Kumar Dharmasena.
Following Dharmasena turning down the confident appeal, Kohli ran up to the batsman for an exchange of words after which square leg umpire Rod Tucker summoned Dhoni and spoke to him.
It was not clear from TV replays whether Trott had edged Sharma or not.
Earlier, Cook had stood his ground when he was declared out caught behind for 13 by Dharmasena and left the field reluctantly after his first twin-failure in this four-game series.
He was out for one in the first innings here.
