![Angry Virat Kohli confronts Australian crowd for constant booing as he walks back through tunnel [WATCH]](https://cricaxn.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/12/Angry-Virat-Kohli-confronts-Australian-crowd-for-constant-booing-as-768x432.png.webp)
The former India captain has faced the wrath of the home public ever since the shoulder bump incident with Sam Konstas.
Ever since Virat Kohli’s shoulder-bumping incident on Day 1 of the Boxing Day Test with Australian debutant Sam Konstas, the former India captain has faced the wrath of the home crowd. The constant attack and booing was further highlighted when Kohli came out to bat on Day 2.
Although the former Indian captain managed to cut through the noise, Kohli could not capitalize on his good start. The dynamic right-hander finally had to return to the pavilion after scoring 36 off 86 balls, falling victim to a Scott Boland delivery.
As he walked back to the dressing room, Kohli once again faced loud boos from the Australian spectators, but this time the Indian star decided to give it back.
Although Kohli had walked halfway through the players’ tunnel, he emerged and stared at the stands before security personnel arrived and escorted him inside.

Australia in the driver’s seat in the Boxing Day test
Talking about the match, the hosts put up a solid batting display in their first innings, posting a commanding total of 474. For India, Jasprit Bumrah was once again the leading wicket-taker with four wickets, while Ravindra Jadeja picked up three.
However, the Indian batsmen struggled to get going once again, losing half their team for just 164 runs on the board.
Young batting sensation Yashasvi Jaiswal was the only bright spot in a lackluster batting display. Jaiswal looked to be in good touch with a confident 82, but lost his wicket due to an unfortunate mix-up in the middle with Kohli.
On Day 2, the visitors are still trailing by a massive 310 runs as the Australian remains in the driver’s seat to take the lead with the series tied at 1-1.
