Aussie cricket fans have been slammed for an ugly chant directed at Indian supporters as tensions escalated during the recent Boxing Day Test at the MCG. Footage shared online shows dozens of Australian fans repeatedly chanting, 'Where's your visa?' toward a nearby group of Indian supporters during the Melbourne leg of the test.

It came as tensions rose on the field after teenager Sam Konstas received a shoulder charge from Indian legend Virat Kohli while on his way to scoring 60 on debut. Supporters from both sides of the match criticised the chant, with many labelling it as 'racist'.

'This is pure racism happening inside the stadium. Unacceptable behaviour,' an Indian fan said. 'I have dealt with racism, it is a thing that will exist forever. If you're in another country, people will discriminate you,' another added. A third said: 'Australians are just embarrassing.'.
'Real face of Australian fans and their culture on display during today's Sydney Test match,' a forth said. Aussie cricket fans have been slammed after footage of them chanting 'where's your visa' towards Indian supporters at the MCG surfaced online (pictured).
Social media users described the chant as 'racist' (pictured, Indian supporters at the SCG). 'These Australian supporters should be banned from attending any cricket match involving the Indian team,' a fifth said. The incident has also made headlines on several major Indian news websites.
