4th Test: Kohli-Konstas Shoulder Collision Could Come Under ICC’s Lens
Boxing Day Test: The shoulder collision incident between veteran India batter Virat Kohli and Australia debutant Sam Konstas on day one of the Boxing Day Test at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) could come under the lens of the International Cricket Council (ICC).
The incident happened after the 10th over ended when Kohli had the ball in hand and appeared to have changed his walking path to be in a shoulder collision with Konstas, who did not take kindly to it, and exchanged a few words with him. Konstas’ opening partner Usman Khawaja and on-field umpire Michael Gough came up quickly to calm down the situation immediately.
Seeing the Kohli-Konstas shoulder collision left former Australia captain Ricky Ponting believing Kohli could be in trouble. "Virat walked one whole pitch over to his right and instigated that confrontation. No doubt in my mind whatsoever. I have no doubt that the umpires and the referee will have a good look at that."
