After India's Test series defeat to New Zealand, skipper Virat Kohli on Monday lost his cool during a press conference.

A journalist asked Kohli whether Kohli needs to tone down his on-field aggression and set an example for his team.

It riled up Kohli and the 31-year-old snapped at the journalist.

"You need to find out exactly what happened and come up with better questions. You can't come here with half questions or half details of what happened. And also, if you want to create controversy, this is not the right place. I had spoken to the match referee. He had no issues with what happened. Thank You," Kohli retorted.

On Sunday, Kohli was seen fired up on the second day of the Test match and celebrated animatedly on the dismissals of Kane Williamson and Tom Latham.

One incident went viral on social media as the Indian skipper was allegedly seen using expletives towards the crowd.

Kohli had a tough time with the bat during the New Zealand tour. He managed to go past the fifty-run mark just once. In the Test series, the Indian skipper failed to even go past the 20-run mark.
