A bizarre incident happened during the opening match of the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 between defending champions Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) and Royal Challengers Bengaluru (RCB) at the iconic Eden Gardens on March 22. During the first over of the Bengaluru speedster Josh Hazlewood, the broadcaster mistakenly showed Virat Kohli's name instead of the right-arm pacer. The hilarious incident caught the attention of the social space. Below are some of the reactions.
