9)    Kohli-Dhawan-Warner (cricket)

During the Adelaide test in the ongoing Australia-India test series Aussie opener David Warner and Indian skipper Virat Kohli with Shikhar Dhawan were involved in not just one but two incidents in the same day and same innings.

The first incident took place in the second session of the fourth day when India pacer Varun Aaron dismissed Warner off a no-ball. Kohli and Aaron had given the batsman a send-off and once he was called back by the umpires, Warner shouted "come on, come on" towards the bowler.

Warner shouted again as he left alone the next delivery, angering the Indian players a little more. Dhawan and Warner then exchanged a few words, stopping the game in the process. Warner later admitted he may have responded a bit too strongly but stated that this was a part of the game.

Kohli was fined for his argument with Steven Smith, following an lbw appeal off Rohit Sharma's bowling. Warner was fined 15% of his match fee while Kohli and Dhawan were docked 30% of theirs following squabbles. Kohli was clearly heared asking Smith to stay in his limits.

Dhawan and Kohli reportedly were also involved in an argument inside the Indian dressing room regarding Dhawan's wrist injury during practice due to which Kohli has to open the innings on Day 4. Kohli was out cheaply and so was the whole batting line up. According to the reports, Kohli lashed out at Dhawan for his cheap dismissal and when the argument heated up, team manager Ravi Shastri had to intervene and stop both the players.
