New Delhi. Indian cricket team’s star player Virat Kohli deliberately pushed Australia’s young opener Sam Costance. This incident, which happened on the first day of the Boxing Day Test, has gained momentum. After the end of the first day’s play, Kohli admitted his mistake in front of the match referee and was fined 20 percent of his match fee. Australian media exaggerated this matter and Virat Kohli was shown as a joker in the newspaper. Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan enumerated the shameful actions of his players one by one to the Australian media.
What happened on the Melbourne ground on the first day of the Boxing Day Test match sparked a debate between former cricketers and the media of both the countries. The history of the Australian cricket team has been dark and they have committed many incidents that bring shame to the game. Former Indian all-rounder Irfan Pathan condemned Virat Kohli for pushing the Australian opener but also showed former Australian cricketers for their true faces. One by one, this stalwart reminded many such things due to which cricket was embarrassed.
Irfan said who spit on the player’s face
Criticizing Virat Kohli, he advised the former Australian cricketers who demanded a match ban on him to look within themselves. Irfan Pathan, while talking to Sunil Gavaskar in the break after the first session of the game on the second day, asked which country’s player did under arm bowling? Who was caught spoiling the ball with sandpaper? Haven’t your players crossed their limits?
If you remember, a lewd comment was made on the family of West Indies players by a player of your team. The Australian player had spit in the face of the opposing team. There are many such incidents, so before saying anything about Virat Kohli, think about your own players also.
