Yashasvi Jaiswal and Mitchell Starc once again grabbed the limelight for their on-field exchange on Day 5 of the ongoing Boxing Day Test between India and Australia at the iconic Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) in Melbourne on Monday (December 10).
After delivering a 142.1km/h bouncer to Rishabh Pant, Australian pacer Mitchell Starc decided to swing the bail at the non-striker's end, apparently in a bid to change his fortunes in the ongoing fourth Test held in Melbourne.

However, as the Aussie pacer returned to his mark, Yashasvi Jaiswal, undeterred by superstition, casually switched the bails back to the original position. Following the incident, Mitchell Starc and Yashasvi Jaiswal found themselves in another on-field exchange as the pair exchanged a few words in a tense moment on Day 5 at the MCG.
