"The person who entered the cricket field was a big fan of Virat Kohli. He has been apprehended and there is an investigation going on. He has been identified as Suraj Bisht," Patidar told ANI here on Saturday.
"Prima facie it looks like he was just going to meet Kohli as he is a big fan but was caught by the security on the ground," Patidar added.

The police official added that the person used to work as a cook, and his ticket had been seized by the authorities.
