Indian captain Virat Kohli has sent a message to cricket supporters to lay off Steve Smith, declaring the former Australian captain does not deserve to be jeered CWC19 IndvAus

Smith was there for only two deliveries before returning to the infield, but Kohli had pointed to the logo on his chest, indicating he wanted the thousands on hand at the Oval to cheer for their country - and not boo Smith. As a show of support, Kohli then shook Smith's hand in between overs.

"Even in the IPL I saw him, it's not good to see someone down like that, to be honest. We've had issues in the past. We've had a few arguments on the field. It remains to be seen if Kohli's message filters through the cricketing landscape, with Australia's next game against Pakistan in Taunton on Wednesday."So just because there's so many Indian fans here, I just didn't want them to set a bad example, to be honest, because he didn't do anything to be booed in my opinion," Kohli said.

What is pathetic is! Only few of Australians liked the tweet! Means not appreciated!

When Indians tour Australia we face racist taunts, onfield and off-field. You low life's call it ' psychological' fight. however, it is not fine with you when the opposing side gives it back becoz you guys r trained to give sh!t but not take it. nobody likes Australians.
