NEW DELHI: Several former cricketers criticised Virat Kohli's unnecessary confrontation with young Sam Konstas in Melbourne on Thursday. Australia's Usman Khawaja intervened to ease the tension, stating he wanted to prevent the situation from escalating.
The incident occurred after the 10th over of Australia's innings on day one of the fourth Test. The two players collided shoulders while crossing paths and exchanged heated words after turning to face each other.
