Meanwhile, during the faceoff between Bangladesh and Afghanistan today, Naveen Ul Haq encountered some hostility from the Dharamshala crowd. A set of spectators at the HPCA Stadium of Dharamshala launched ‘Kohli, Kohli’ chants on Naveen, while he was fielding near the boundary rope. The crowd continued with the hostile act for a prolonged period before Naveen changed his position in the field.

“We had a good start, but we had bad shot selections after that. I think we fought well, but the score wasn’t good enough. Looking forward to the next game. Need to learn from our mistakes, need to make sure it doesn’t happen again.” said Afghanistan captain Hashmatullah Shahidi after the defeat against Bangladesh

Earlier this year, Naveen Ul Haq and Virat Kohli were engaged in a heated exchange during an Indian Premier League fixture. The verbal duel between the two had occurred amid a famous IPL contest between Royal Challengers Bangalore and Lucknow Super Giants. Ever since the animated exchange in IPL, there has been visible tension between Naveen and Kohli, which today resulted in the Afghanistani facing brutal chants.
