The verbal communication between the Australian Marnus Labuschagne and Mohammad has been an usual scene in the ongoing Border Gavaskar Trophy; however, this time it looked like a friendly chat as Virat Kohli sent a warning to Siraj. On day 1 of the fourth Test at Melbourne, Siraj was walking back after completing the 43rd over when Labuschagne was walking towards his partner, Usman Khawaja. Labuschagne was the one who started the chat with a smile, to which Siraj turned back and responded with a smile as well. From a distance, Virat Kohli was heard instructing Siraj not to have a smile with the batter. Meanwhile, Rohit Sharma, the Test team captain, was heard telling Ravindra Jadeja that there is some turn and bounce on the pitch while handing him the ball for the next over.

Siraj teases Labuschagne Labuschagne, the one who loves to stay animated, and Siraj, the one who maintains aggression—both have been for and against each other since the former's arrival. From giving short balls repeatedly, Siraj made Marnus clueless quite a few times as Marnus missed a line and the ball went to hit his crotch. Even his trousers got stained from the ball. Siraj even changed the bails like he did in Gabba. However, unlike Gabba's, Labuschagne stood calm and had chats with Yashasvi Jaiswal at the leg slip without reshuffling the bails. Speaking about the match, Australia won the toss and decided to bat first and is batting at 200 runs with losing just 2 wickets. An early breakthrough after Sam Konstas's (60) departure, Australia lost Usman Khawaja (57) for a top edge at the point. Labuschagne has already scored 57, having Steve Smith by his side, batting at 27.
