Senior Indian players and captain Ajinkya Rahane had a word with the match-officials and security personnel at the end of the play, amid claims that a member in the Randwick stand abused Siraj when he was fielding at fine-leg.

In a separate incident, the Indian staff walked around behind where Jasprit Bumrah was standing and spoke to him. Bumrah spoke to security officials before leaving as did Mohammed Siraj.

There were dramatic scenes around the Indian dressing room at stumps on day 03 with ICC and security officials locked in a long discussion with the members of the Indian team management.
