Attempting to bounce back, Siraj bowled a short-pitched delivery, Salt threw his bat at it, only for the umpire to call it a wide.
The RCB bowler wasn’t pleased with the decision as he approached Salt and gave the Englishman a mouthful. DC captain David Warner tried to intervene and act as a peacemaker, but Siraj didn’t hold back on the senior Aussie batter either. The pacer then gestured at Salt asking him to keep quiet.
Faf du Plessis, the RCB captain, walked towards Siraj after the umpire tried to quieten the players.
In the contest, half centuries from Virat Kohli and Mahipal Lomror took RCB to 181 runs in the 20 overs. While chasing, Phil Salt emerged as the highest scorer with 87 runs from 45 balls. There were contributions from David Warner, Mitchell Marsh and Rilee Rossouw as well.
The win, DC’s fourth of the season and second in a row, took them to the ninth spot in the IPL points table.
