Royal Challengers Bangalore have denied that Dan Christian has been warned by the franchise because of his appearance in a video interview. The interview, where Christian spoke about RCB skipper Virat Kohli’s leadership, among other things, was deleted from YouTube on Friday after Christian was “issued a warning for breach of contract” by RCB, according to The Grade Cricketer, an Australian podcast. “RCB issued a gentle reminder regarding the team’s media protocol to all their players recently (following Christian’s interview). No official warning was issued to Dan Christian or any other individual player,” an official from RCB clarified to indianexpress.com on Saturday. RCB’s clarification came after an allegation by The Grade Cricketer that Christian had requested them to take down their interview with him and Kyle Jamieson because RCB had warned him.
