Reacting to Virat Kohli shoulder-barging Australia's 19-year-old debutant Sam Konstas on Day 1 of Boxing Day Test, ex-Australia captain Ricky Ponting said, "Virat walked one whole pitch over to his right and instigated that confrontation." Ponting added, "I've no doubt that...umpires and referee will have a good look at that. Fielders should be nowhere near the batter at that stage."
