Kohli lost his cool after the team's training session in Perth, ahead of the side's group league game against the West Indies at the WACA on Friday, and hurled expletives at a journalist.

Once he was done with his training and returning to the dressing room, India's premier batsman confronted a scribe of a national daily.

To the horror of that journalist, Kohli used filthy language for some time before storming off. Some members of the Indian team who were nearby, as also the journalist, were stunned, wondering what exactly had happened.

Once Kohli cooled down he told someone about an article that had appeared about him and his girlfriend Anushka Sharma in a national daily and said he thought it was that particular journalist who had written the story.

When he was told that he had mistaken this particular reporter for someone else, Kohli called one of the journalists and through him apologised for the incident.
