The fourth Test between India and Australia is currently underway at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground along with the sledging between the players. In latest addition to the sledge war, KL Rahul and Nathan Lyon were involved in an unexpected incident on Day 2 of the crucial game.

KL Rahul, who was demoted to No. 3 as Indian captain returned to the opening spot alongside Yashasvi Jaiswal, was taunted by Lyon during the match. In the video going viral on social media, the 37-year-old spinner is heard taunting KL about his demotion as he said,'What did you do wrong to bat one down?'. 

After the Virat Kohli and Sam Konstas incident yesterday, it seemed like the Karnataka born right-hander showed maturity as he continued to ignore Nathan Lyon's remark and focus on his game.


Captain Rohit's Revival Flops Big Time

Rohit Sharma's dismal series continued as he was dismissed for just 3 runs in the ongoing match. On the first ball of the sixth over, Pat Cummins delivered a short ball outside off stump, which bounced and moved away slightly. Rohit, on the back foot, attempted a half-hearted pull shot but mistimed it. The ball ballooned into the air, with Scott Boland comfortably taking the catch at mid-wicket. This marked Cummins' seventh dismissal of Rohit in Test cricket, and it was a poor start for India, with the captain's struggles at the top of the order continuing.

At the time of writing, KL Rahul was dismissed by an absolute jaffa by Pat Cummins right before Tea. India are currently at 51/2 with Virat Kohli expected to join Yashasvi Jaiswal at the crease soon.
