IND vs AUS: 'Sam Konstas Father of Virat Kohli' - Wikipedia edit goes Viral after duo's clash in Melbourne

By MyKhel Staff

The India and Australia clash at Melbourne Cricket Ground during the fourth Test match has taken the cricket world by storm.

Young Australian sensation Sam Konstas not only impressed with his bat but also caught everyone's attention due to a heated exchange with Indian cricket star Virat Kohli.

Sam Konstas Father of Virat Kohli

This moment between Konstas and Kohli has not only been a topic of discussion among cricket fans but also led to some humorous and viral edits on Wikipedia. Originally, Konstas was humorously dubbed the 'Father of Jasprit Bumrah' for his aggressive play, but following his clash with Kohli, his Wikipedia page was amusingly updated to name him the 'Father of Virat Kohli'.

The playful Wikipedia edits, albeit temporary, have spotlighted Sam Konstas' meteoric rise in the cricketing world. This alteration on his profile page, which quickly spread across social media platforms, showcases the blend of humour and fanaticism that surrounds sports figures.

The 19-year-old played a gem of a knock in front of a packed MCG. Konstas showcased his cricketing prowess on the field by opening the batting and scoring an impressive half-century. He made 60 runs off 65 balls, including six fours and two sixes.

He scooped Jasprit Bumrah for two sixes in an over, and then got involved in a heated altercation with Virat Kohli, which was originally instigated by the India player. The Australian debutant continued his onslaught and one person edited his Wikipedia profile mentioning him as the 'Father of Virat Kohli'.

Australia have ended the day 1 at 311 for 6. Jasprit Bumrah, despite the onslaught, picked up 3 wickets. For Australia, Marnus Labushchagne scored 72 runs and Steve Smith is unbeaten at 68 at stumps. The series is currently poised 1-1 between the two rivals.
