Indian supporters hit back in bizarre fashion after Aussie fans’ foul-mouth chant about Virat Koli

Australian cricket fans at the MCG delivered a brutal sledgehammer to Indian cricket great Virat Kohli during the final day of the Boxing Day Test, but Indian fans hit back with a chant of their own.

Australia then recorded a famous victory on the final day of the fourth Test, with Pat Cummins’ side wrestling the match away from India to win by 184 runs.

After building a 340-run lead, there was some concern that India could come into bat on the final day and wrestle the match away from the hosts.

But on what was an exciting day of cricket, Australia needed 92 overs to secure the fourth Test.

Player of the match Cummins and Scott Boland both took three wickets each, while Travis Head, Mitchell Starc and Nathan Lyon all impressed with ball in hand.

However, it wasn’t all plain sailing for Australia, with Yashasvi Jaiswal and Rishabh Pant forming a solid partnership, with the former amassing a total of 84 runs.

There was also some controversy on the field, with Jaiswal being caught behind Alex Carey after appearing to shift the ball behind him.

Despite this, third referee Joel Wilson did not raise his hand, with Australia choosing to review the decision. Although there was a clear deflection, Snicko did not peak. Despite this, television umpires decided the deflection was clear enough to overturn the original decision and Jaiswal was walked.

There was also some controversy among the crowd, with some fans at the MCG, including those in the infamous Bay 13, heard chanting ‘Kohli is aw*****’.

It comes after the former India captain endured a difficult week in Melbourne, initially clashing with reporters outside an airport.

Kohli had claimed that the reporters had filmed his family upon his arrival in Victoria.

“With my kids I need some privacy, you can’t film without asking me,” the former India captain was heard saying.

Kohli was subsequently sanctioned by the ICC after he appeared to ‘shoulder bump’ Australian debutant Sam Konstas while walking between overs.

The 36-year-old was given one demerit point and a fine of 20 percent of his match fee for the incident, which was said to have breached the ICC Code of Conduct regarding ‘inappropriate physical contact with a player’.

But while Australian fans booed the Indian superstar, some Indian fans inside the MCG hit back with chants of their own.

According to cricket analyst Kartik Kannan, Indian fans had chanted the phrase ‘Ganpati Bappa Morya’ back to the Australian supporters.

It is believed that the phrase translates into praise for the deity Ganesha.

‘Bay 13 says: ‘Kohli is aw*****’. Bay 14 reads ‘Ganpati Bappa Morya’. This is the strangest comeback I’ve ever heard. F*** my life!’

On Monday, Kohli again struggled with bat in hand and was dismissed for just five runs by Mitchell Starc. It came after the Indian great was dismissed for 36 runs in the previous innings.

Despite scoring a century in the first Test, Kohli, by his standards, has since impressed with 65 runs in the last three Tests.

With Australia now leading 2-1 in the Border-Gavaskar Series, India will have to seal victory in Sydney next week if they hope to stop the hosts from achieving victory.
