Tempers flared during the fourth Test at the MCG when 19-year-old Constas, who was making his Test debut, unsettled the Indian players with his aggressive approach during his innings of 60 off 65 balls as an opener. This included India’s in-form bowling leader Jasprit Bumrah hitting a six past the wicketkeeper with a scoop shot.
This clearly angered the Indian players and invited an awkward reaction from Kohli, who bumped Konstas’ shoulder as he passed him. The situation was diffused by Constas’ opening partner Usman Khawaja, who put his arm around Kohli to make matters easier.
Match referee Andy Pycroft later fined Kohli 20 percent of his match fee and received one demerit point for a Level 1 offense of the ICC Code of Conduct.
On the individual front, Kohli seemed to have found his rhythm with a century (100 not out) in the second innings of the opening Test of the tour in Perth, but has failed in his remaining seven innings, scoring just 84 runs. And have made. Let’s go.
This includes Kohli’s innings in India’s first innings of the Sydney Test on Friday, when the batting stalwart again failed and was dismissed for 17 by Scott Boland.
