The situation took a sharp turn when Tony Jones, a reporter from Nine Sports, criticized Kohli's behaviour in no uncertain terms.

Virat Kohli and his family were filmed at the Melbourne Airport on December 19, which irked the Indian cricketer. Kohli had an heated argument with the reporter and the cameraperson.

Kohli has consistently requested Indian paparazzi to avoid photographing his son and daughter. However, the Australian media did not adhere to this and proceeded to record his children.
