'Filmed inside hotel room during T20 World Cup': Kohli appalled, concerned over privacy
India cricket star Virat Kohli says he is paranoid over his privacy after an “appalling” incident in which intruders allegedly filmed inside his hotel room during the Twenty20 World Cup.
Kohli took to social media on Monday to denounce the video, in which a stranger walks through the room filming every step of the way.
A second person was in the room when the video was shot, but no faces are shown in the footage.
The video is labelled ’King Kohli’s Hotel Room,” and shows the star batsman’s neat and organized belongings.
It remains unclear in which hotel room the video was taken, or how it came into Kohli’s possession.
“I understand that fans get very happy and excited seeing their favorite players and get excited to meet them and I’ve always appreciated that,” Kohli wrote to his 221 million followers on Instagram.

“But this video here is appalling and it’s made me feel very paranoid about my privacy. If I cannot have privacy in my own hotel room, then where can I really expect any personal space at all??
“I’m NOT okay with this kind of fanaticism and absolute invasion of privacy. Please respect people’s privacy and not treat them as a commodity for entertainment.”
Kohli played in India’s five-wicket loss to South Africa in Perth on Sunday night. The 33-year-old made only 12 runs and dropped an easy catch in the deep.
India plays its next match at the T20 World Cup on Wednesday against Bangladesh in Adelaide.

T20 World Cup: South Africa beat India by 5 wickets
David Miller overcame bowling-friendly conditions to help South Africa beat India by five wickets in the 2022 T20 World Cup on Sunday.
Miller scored 59 not out off 46 balls to shepherd South Africa to 137-5 (19.4 overs) in reply to India's 133-9 (20 overs).
Lungi Ngidi took 4-29 to help restrict the Indian score, while Suryakumar Yadav scored a counter-attacking 68 off 40 balls.
In the Western Australian capital, Ngidi was named player of the match for helping South Africa beat India in an ICC event for the first time since 2011.
"It has always been my dream to put in a performance like that in a World Cup. But it got pretty nerve-wracking till the end. I will cherish this performance for a long time," said the fast bowler.
Opting to bat, India ran into Ngidi who ripped up its batting order with a four-wicket burst.
Rohit Sharma (15) top-edged after facing a short ball barrage while Lokesh Rahul (9) was caught at slip four balls later.
Kagiso Rabada held two tricky catches at fine leg to help dismiss both Virat Kohli (12) and Hardik Pandya (2).
India were rocked by pace and bounce, reduced to 49-5 in 8.3 overs. Anrich Nortje (1-23) dismissed Deepak Hooda (0) for a three-ball duck in between.
Yadav provided resistance with a counter-attacking half-century off 30 balls. He smacked six fours and three sixes to resurrect the Indian innings and put on 52 runs off 40 balls with Dinesh Karthik, who only contributed six runs to the sixth-wicket partnership.
Then Wayne Parnell initiated a double breakthrough, sending back Karthik and Ashwin (7) as India floundered again.
Yadav's dismissal in the 19th over reduced India to 127-8, and it finished with a below-par score on a bowler-friendly surface.
In response, Arshdeep Singh hit South Africa's top-order hard. He had Quinton de Kock (1) caught at slip and then trapped Rilee Rossouw lbw for a two-ball duck.
South Africa went from 3-2 to 24-3 as Mohammed Shami had Temba Bavuma (10) caught behind.
But Markram and Miller resisted the flow of wickets, adding 76 runs off 60 balls for the fourth wicket.
Markram hit six fours and a six to bring up his half-century off 38 balls.
He survived two major chances. Virat Kohli dropped him in the deep off Ravichandran Ashwin in the 12th over, and Sharma missed an easy run-out thereafter.
Miller reached his half-century off 40 deliveries, upping the ante with four fours and three sixes.
Yadav finally held a catch to dismiss Markram, but it was too late. Ashwin also trapped Tristan Stubbs (6) lbw to make it 122-5.
Despite the breakthrough, India had no response for the calm Miller who finished off the match with two balls to spare.

T20 WC: Pakistan thumps Netherlands by six wickets
Shadab Khan took three wickets and then hit the winning runs as Pakistan beat Netherlands by six wickets with six overs to spare on Sunday, finally posting a victory at the Twenty20 World Cup.
Pakistan lost in a last-ball thriller in its tournament opener against archrival India and was upset by Zimbabwe before a thumping win over the Dutch to start a Group 2 double-header in Perth.
In the Western Australian capital, Pakistan's pace attack restricted Netherlands to 91-9, with Shadab taking 3-22 and Mohammad Wasim Jr. returning 2-15.
Netherlands won the toss and opted to bat but couldn’t cope with Pakistan’s quick bowlers and slumped quickly to 26-3.
Colin Ackermann (27) tried rebuilding the innings but Shadab ran through the middle order and Wasim Jr. narrowly missed his hat trick toward the end. He had dismissed Tim Pringle (5) and Fred Klaassen (0) dismissed off successive balls.
Only two Dutch players scored in double digits.
Pakistan replied with a sedate innings and knocked up the runs in 13.5 overs, finishing with 95-4.
Mohammad Rizwan scored 49 off 39 balls, combining with Fakhar Zaman (20) in a 37-run second wicket stand after Pakistan skipper Babar Azam (4) was run out.
Pakistan didn’t appear to be in any hurry to finish the proceedings, with Rizwan dismissed just in sight of the finish line and missing out his half-century. Shan Masood (12) was also out before Pakistan completed the formalities with Shadab's boundary through mid-off.
“The last couple of games, we didn’t finish the games well,” Shadab said. “Today, we finished it off.”
Pakistan is fifth in the Group 2 standings, and Netherlands has been knocked out of contention after three consecutive losses in the Super 12 stage.

“I can do this!”: Mosaddek to Shakib before last ball against Zimbabwe
Despite a last-minute scare, Bangladesh beat Zimbabwe by three runs today at the ongoing T20 World Cup in Brisbane. A no-ball came to the fore at the last moment, which could have cost the Tigers the match.
But Mosaddek Hossain, who bowled the last over, held his nerve well, and delivered a dot that earned Bangladesh a win — second at the T20 World Cup 2022.
After the match, Shakib Al Hasan, the Bangladesh captain, said that Mosaddek told him he is “strong enough” to manage a dot in the last ball.
The no-ball was not Mosaddek’s fault at all. It was Nurul Hasan, the wicketkeeper, who grabbed the last ball of the 20th over from in front of the stump – a clear violation of the cricketing rule.
A wicketkeeper is bound to grab the ball from behind the stump. If a keeper violates this rule, the delivery is a no-ball, and this is exactly what happened in today’s match in Brisbane.
Zimbabwe needed 16 runs off the last over to seal the game. Mosaddek conceded one run off the first ball and scalped the wicket of Brad Evans on the second ball. The third and fourth deliveries were hit for four and six respectively by Richard Ngarava. Zimbabwe got close to sealing the match.
But off the fifth ball, Nurul did a wonderful job when Ngarava stepped up aiming a big shot and missed the ball. Nurul grabbed the ball and shattered his stumps in the blink of an eye.

At this point, Shakib warned Nurul about grabbing the ball from in front of the stumps. The TV replays showed that he grabbed the ball nearly from in front of the stumps. Shakib said he warned Nurul so that he doesn't repeat it on the next delivery.
Nurul, however, forgot the pointer in the last ball (which was actually the sixth delivery) and grabbed the ball from in front of the stumps when Blessing Muzarabani missed it. Bangladesh broke into celebration before the umpires declared the sixth delivery a no-ball!
At that point, Zimbabwe’s target came down to four runs off a single delivery. Bangladesh were on the verge of an unexpected defeat. A bad delivery from Mosaddek or a good shot from Muzarabani could have written the story of the match in a different way.
Mosaddek held his nerve well, very well. He delivered a fullish delivery. Nurul, this time, picked it from behind the stumps and that’s it!
Bangladesh won the match by three runs in the midst of chaos and drama.
It was the first time when Bangladesh took on their familiar foe Zimbabwe in a World Cup encounter and they managed to win.
Ahead of all-important matches against subcontinental opponents Pakistan and India, this will surely boost the confidence of Shakib and his troops.
