Frustrated Australian Cricket Fans Fight With Indians In Delhi: There was an ugly incident in the stands in the Arun Jaitley Stadium, in Delhi, during the second Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2023 between India and Australia.
In the video that has now gone viral on social media, an Indian fan had a heated tussle with an Australian fan. Things simmered so much that both even threatened to go physical with each other, but at the last moment, the crowd around them separated them before things could go really out of hand.
While the game in the middle inched toward Indian, both these persons in the stands hurled down abuses toward each other with their friends trying to calm them down.
India won the match in Delhi by 6 wickets
It has been reported that the Indian fans had been continuously teasing the Aussie supporters and when the Australian lost this cool, both charged toward each other aggressively and almost turned it into a physical fight.
The Australian could be heard saying, “Stop pointing your finger at me,” as a fellow Aussie fan tried to calm the situation, while this particular Indian fan hurled a series of Hindi expletives.

This is one of the many reasons why I dislike Delhi a lot.A bunch of classless and illiterate people think abusing and throwing insults is 'cool and like a custom' for them. Using filthy language to your guests is totally unacceptable. Really shameful as an Indian to see this. pic.twitter.com/hmXMfkQIOd

Action from the DDCA and BCCI is unlikely to be taken on this incident.
