New Delhi:
Australia media hits out at Ravindra Jadeja: What a win in a test, it seems as if the entire Australian eco system is busy harassing the Indian team. And Australia media is leading it. After the recent dispute with Virat at the airport, the Australian media has now targeted all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja before the fourth Test starting from Boxing Day (26 December). Jadeja’s inning of 77 runs in the third Test was a major reason due to which India was successful in avoiding the follow-on. However, the recent controversy related to Jadeja happened in the press conference organized by BCCI. And the Australian media is exaggerating this incident very loudly on its channels.
Aus vs Ind: Who is this Australian female journalist and why did Virat Kohli get angry, know the whole story
Cricket Australia made this mistake
This incident happened in the press conference held after the first practice session of Team India at MCG. It was organized by the BCCI and was mainly for the Indian journalists who came to cover the series on the tour. Despite this, Cricket Australia also called the Australian media without coordinating. In the press conference, Jadeja answered the questions asked by Indian journalists mostly in Hindi, but Jadeja ignored the questions asked by Kangaroo journalists in English. Probably the reason for this was that this press conference was given to them only for Indian journalists.
Ravindra Jadeja refused to answer in English during the press conference today, on which the Australian media has become rude. After the controversy with Virat Kohli, now Australian media is showing its true colours. #INDvsAUS pic.twitter.com/ApcdNYJL92

…and things got worse
After this, the Australian journalists surrounded the Indian media manager Maulin Parikh and asked why the questions were not taken in English. The Indian manager tried to explain the situation, but the situation worsened when Australian cameramen started recording the incident without permission. Indian journalists present during the incident also intervened that private conversations are not for public broadcast.
Kangaroo media linked the huge incident
Despite its mistake, the Australian media is not presenting the incident realistically and is linking it to the clash of a female journalist with Virat Kohli a few days ago. Also, the Australian media has accused the Indian team of non-cooperation and biased attitude. Although the truth is that due to limited time, many Indian journalists did not get a chance to ask questions, but despite this, Australian media presented it as a big news in their channels. This is enough to show that the aim of the local media is to disturb the Indian camp somewhere.
