The Indian veteran made forceful contact with the 19-year-old debutant after Konstas belted the bowlers around the Melbourne cricket Ground on his way to a blistering 60 off 65 balls.

It sparked a heated exchange between the pair in the first session, with Konstas' fellow opener Usman Khawaja and umpire Michael Gough intervening.

The International Cricket Council (ICC) announced on Thursday that Kohli "has been fined 20 percent of his match fee and awarded one demerit point for breaching Level 1 of the ICC Code of Conduct".
