The Boxing Day Test has started in Melbourne, in which Australia won the toss and is batting first. However, just 10 overs of the Australian innings were over when something more was seen on the field apart from the collision of bat and ball between the players. Players of India and Australia were seen fighting with each other. There was a verbal altercation between them. The players between whom this was seen were Virat Kohli from India and 19-year-old Sam Constus, who is making his debut from Australia.
Virat Kohli is famous for his aggression in world cricket. But, Sam Constas would not have thought that he would face Kohli's aggression during the first innings of the first Test of his career. But, something similar was seen as soon as the 10th over of the Australian innings ended in the Melbourne Test.

Now let's know what happened. As soon as the 10th over of the Australian innings ended, Virat Kohli came forward and hit Sam Constas with his shoulder. Now there is always a reaction to every action. So, as soon as Kohli hit Constas with his shoulder, he got into a tussle with him and a little argument was seen between the two.
When this incident happened, Australia had scored 24 runs in 10 overs. Out of this, 14 runs came in just one over of Bumrah. At the same time, Constas also became the first batsman who hit a six against Bumrah after 4483 balls. Not only this, he also showed the courage to play some reverse sweeps against Bumrah in the first 10 overs. Kohli tried to answer this attitude of the new Australian batsman with his aggression.
Well, how can it be possible that there is a match between India and Australia and such pictures are not seen. Therefore, what was seen between Virat and Constas at MCG was not surprising. When Virat got into a fight, Constas was playing after scoring 27 runs. After that incident, he added 33 more runs to his score. That is, he got out after scoring 60 runs in the first innings of his test career.
