Australia’s vice-captain David Warner and South African wicketkeeper-batsman Quinton de Kock got involved in a heated off-field exchange in Durban on Sunday.
The incident took place during the tea break on the 4th day of the ongoing first Test match between the two countries at the Kingsmead.
CCTV footage from the player’s tunnel showed Warner and De Kock involved in a fiery exchange as players climbed the stairwell to their dressing rooms after the post-lunch session.
The video shows Warner being restrained by Australia skipper Steve Smith and left-handed batsman Usman Khwaja as he directed a verbal barrage at De Kock, who exited the field as South Africa’s not-out batsman at the same time as the Australians.
Australia wicketkeeper Tim Paine also moved in to block Warner before Smith ushers the opening batsman away.
