Some of the Indian players, one of them Mohammed Siraj, have complained to the Sydney Test match officials about being subjected to alleged racist abuse and foul language from sections of the crowd at the Sydney Cricket Ground during the ongoing third Test against Australia. It is understood that at least four Indian players were at the receiving end of the abuse.

After the third day’s play, which ended with Australia 103 for 2 in their second innings for a 197-run lead, the Indian team reported the matter to the on-field umpires. However, it could not be ascertained whether the Indian team management has officially lodged a complaint with the match officials.
