Teenager Sam Konstas has been described by team-mate Scott Boland as getting "under the skin" of the Indian cricket team during the fifth Test in Sydney.
The match ended with a heated exchange between Konstas and Indian bowler Jasprit Bumrah, igniting tensions on the field.
India's players expressed frustration after Konstas was involved in delays, with wicketkeeper Rishabh Pant stating it was a tactic to waste time.
Konstas had a notable debut in the previous Test where he made 60 runs and engaged in another altercation with Virat Kohli.
Former Australia coach Darren Lehmann expressed concerns that Konstas should remain focused and not become entangled in off-field disputes.
