However, even before play began, a group of Indian players were involved in a heated exchange with umpire Shawn Craig after the change of ball at the start of Day Four.   Umpire Craig was heard in the stump microphone explaining his decision to change the ball: “Scratch it, we change the ball... no more discussion, let’s play.” Kishan retorted: “So we are going to play with this ball… that’s a very stupid decision.” To which Craig responded: “Excuse me, you’ll be on report for dissent. That’s inappropriate behaviour. Because of your actions, we changed the ball.” However, Cricket Australia later issued a statement, saying Kishan will not be charged with dissent after match officials clarified the ball was changed “due to deterioration”.
