Kohli received distasteful comments from a section of MCG fans on Friday.
When Kohli was walking back to the dressing room after his dismissal on the second day, he received loud boos from the crowd. Hearing the boos and some unwanted comments, the star batter came back out to confront the fans before security cajoled him to go back.
Regarding the incident, Melbourne Cricket Club CEO, Stuart Fox, on Saturday (December 28) confirmed that there has been no official complaint by India for the heckling incident.
"You're never comfortable when you've got fans heavily engaging with the player," said Fox while speaking on SEN radio.
"As the operator, you are just always watching. I went and looked at the vision last night. I have been talking to security this morning. There has been no official complaint from India; they are comfortable.
"I think a bit of heckling happened late and Kohli obviously popped his head back. I'll be concerned if it was really abusive and (there is) any physical contact or abuse that's pushing the boundary. That's where we are always making sure everyone is well behaved.
"I love Kohli; I love what he has done for our game. I don't particularly love the booing. I think he should be congratulated on creating the rivalry that he has," he concluded.
Virat Kohli began the Border Gavaskar Trophy with a second innings hundred (100*) at Perth, but has amassed only 62 runs in his other five innings combined so far. He was dismissed for 36 during India’s first innings at MCG.
Kohli will now be keen to make amends in the second dig as the visitors find themselves struggling at 326/7, still 148 runs behind Australia in the first innings.
