Having gone through many incidents of really pathetic things said on the boundary lines, this is the absolute peak of rowdy behaviour. It&#39;s sad to see this happen on the field,&quot; Kohli said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>&quot;The incident needs to be looked at with absolute urgency and seriousness and strict action against the offenders should set things straight for once,&quot; he added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">The incident needs to be looked at with absolute urgency and seriousness and strict action against the offenders should set things straight for once.<\/p>\r\n&mdash; Virat Kohli (@imVkohli) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/imVkohli\/status\/1348204430038994944?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">January 10, 2021<\/a><\/blockquote>\r\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\r\n\r\n<div style=\"page-break-after:always\"><span style=\"display:none\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/div>\r\n\r\n<p>The Indian team had apprised match referee David Boon of alleged racial abuse at the end of the third day&#39;s play. Match and stadium officials were alert on the fourth day and as such play was halted and six people were evicted following another incident just before Tea during Australia&#39;s second innings.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Sunday&#39;s incident followed alleged racial abuse of Indian players -- Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj -- by a section of the SCG crowd, the complaint of which was officially made by the Indian team on Saturday.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Right-arm pacer Mohammad Shami also condemned the incidents and said it was disappointing to see his teammates becoming subject to racial abuse repeatedly in Sydney.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\r\n<p dir=\"ltr\" lang=\"en\">Disappointing to see that my teammates were subjected to racial abuse repeatedly in Sydney.
