4th Test: Just A Slap On The Wrist, Says Gavaskar On Kohli’s Fine Over Colliding With Konstas
Boxing Day Test: Legendary India batter Sunil Gavaskar believes Virat Kohli’s fine over his shoulder collision with Sam Konstas on day one of Boxing Day Test is just a "slap on the wrist" and hopes that the talismanic batter is not remembered by the cricketing world for this incident.
On Thursday, during day one of the match, after the 10th over of Australia’s innings ended, Kohli appeared to change his walking direction and made an inappropriate shoulder bump into Konstas, who hit 60 off 65 balls on debut.
Later, Kohli was fined 20 per cent of his match fee and given a demerit point after he was found guilty of breaching Level 1 of Article 2.12 in the ICC Code of Conduct.
