The incident in the fifth over of India’s innings when Kohli made contact with bowler Beuran Hendricks in the process of taking a run. Kohli was found to have breached Article 2.12 of the ICC Code of Conduct for Players and Player Support Personnel, which relates to “Inappropriate physical contact with a Player, Player Support Personnel, Umpire, Match Referee or any other person (including a spectator) during an International Match.”
