An ugly spat occurred between Royal Challengers Bangalore bowler Harshal Patel and Mumbai batsman Ambati Rayudu in the IPL match between the two sides here and the home team captain came in defence of his player.

Rayudu while celebrating MI's win allegedly passed some comments on Patel that enraged the tall RCB medium pacer who tried to charge menacingly at the Mumbai batsman before his captain Virat Kohli physically stopped him.
