Virat Kohli had to face the hooting of Kangaroo fans in the Boxing Day Test being played in Melbourne. In fact, Virat’s bat did not work in the first innings of the fourth Test. Virat played an innings of 36 runs in 86 balls at a strike rate of 41.86. During this, he also hit 4 fours. Scott Boland got Virat out at the hands of Alex Carey. Kohli and Yashasvi Jaiswal shared a 102-run partnership for the third wicket.

When Virat Kohli was returning to the pavilion after being out in Melbourne, he had to face the anger of the audience. Kohli was walking towards the dressing room with his head bowed, when the fans started hooting. At first Virat ignored it and he kept moving forward, but when the innings went out of hand, Kohli came back and got angry at the fans. Kohli was looking angrily at the audience, then the ICC people present there came and took Virat inside. The video of this entire incident is going viral on social media very fast.

Virat Kohli Faces Hooting

Since the first day of the Boxing Day Test match, the home fans present at the MCG Stadium have been mocking Virat Kohli. This mockery started when Virat Kohli shoulder-bumped 19-year-old Sam Constas, who was making his debut for Australia, on Boxing Day in Melbourne. Many argued that it was very wrong for a player of Virat Kohli’s stature to do this act. Virat Kohli was fined 20 percent of his match fee and a demerit point was also added to his account for shoulder-bumping Constas in the 10th over of the Australian innings on the opening day of the fourth Test in Melbourne for violating Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct.
