Young Australian opener Sam Konstas was seen mimicking Team India batting star Virat Kohli's shoulder bump to get the crowd going on day three of the fourth Test against Australia at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG). A video of the same surfaced on social media as the crowd cheered following the youngster's gesture.
The 19-year-old copped a shoulder bump from Kohli on day 1 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) when he was walking past the 36-year-old amid his sparkling innings of 60 off 65 deliveries. The two also exchanged some heated words as Konstas' fellow opening partner Usman Khawaja and an on-field umpire intervened to break it.
Meanwhile, below is the video of Konstas imitating Kohli:
Sam Konstas' quick-fire innings lays foundation for Australia's massive total
Meanwhile, the New South Welshman racing off the blocks disturbed Jasprit Bumrah's lines and lengths in the first session. Having raced to his half-century only in 52 deliveries, he became the fastest opening batter to get there on debut.
Khawaja also found form after struggling in the first three Tests as did Marnus Labuschagne, scoring his second half-century of the series. However, the star of the show for the hosts was Steve Smith, who slammed his second hundred and got to 140 before a bizarre dismissal brought upon his downfall. Pat Cummins also chipped in with 49 and stitched a quick-fire century stand with Steve Smith.
