Australia's captain, Pat Cummins, backed the young batter Sam Konstas amid controversies related to Virat Kohli and Jasprit Bumrah in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024. "I've been really impressed with the way he's gone about it. I think people mistake a bit of confidence with bullying and abuse," he said. Konstas scored 60 runs in his first innings but failed afterwards.
