It was during the 33rd over when Bumrah was in action bowling to Bairstow. Kohli and Bairstow engaged themselves in exchanging words which turned into a heated argument between them, Kohli was heard saying, ‘‘Shut up. Just stand and bat’’ to Bairstow.
The on-field umpires had to step in to calm both the players and Kohli was seen discussing it with the officials, the former Indian captain looked furious as he kept passing the words to Bairstow. Kohli put his fingers on his lips as he was suggesting Bairstow to stop muttering and focus on your batting.

However, after the incident Johny Bairstow scored his brilliant hundred.
Jonny Bairstow’s quick-fire century helped England’s side to bounce back from 83/5
Johnny Bairstow at the moment is in the form of his life. Bairstow’s 100 helped England to avoid follow on. Mohammad Shami got him out in 54.1 overs.
A sharp catch to Virat Kohli at first slip and Kohli snapped it next to his face. The Kohli-Bristow argument ended with dramatic irony. England is still 150 runs short and both Bairstow and Billings are out which should give India a sizeable lead.
