Ollie Robinson has been in headlines lately. Not for the ideal reasons though as more than his performance with the ball in hand, it was on-field duel with Usman Khawaja that has attracted a lot of criticism towards him. His choice of words hasn't gone down too well with some of the Aussie legends including the likes of Ricky Ponting and Matthew Hayden. However, those who have followed the England seamer's career know that this isn't the first time that Robinson has been involved in sledging. 

During India's tour of England in 2021 too, Robinson had been at the centre of attraction for the way he behaved on-field. However, the then India skipper Virat Kohli had turned the tables on him and responded just the way the Englishman had been behaving in the tour. An old video has now resurfaced on social media in the aftermath of the Robinson-Khawaja incident in which Kohli can be seen sledging back the England speedster.

Meanwhile, Robinson after the match revealed that he had now idea that his exchange with Khawaja after he got the batter out would become so big. He realised it only he checked his phone after the day's play.

"I didn’t realise the Ussie [Usman Khawaja] send-off was such a big thing until I got off the pitch to find my phone blowing up with mates texting me and it all going off. I just got caught up in the moment. I was desperate for a wicket; I hadn’t bowled that well in the first innings, I’d had that slip in my second over and lost a bit of confidence, and then I was trying to feel my way back in a little bit, having not played much for a while. And obviously Ussie was the big wicket, he was playing beautifully. It was nothing against Ussie, it was just one of those things, I got caught up in the moment and let myself go," Robinson wrote in his column for Wisden.

"We’ve all seen it with Jimmy [Anderson], Broady, [Glenn] McGrath, Brett Lee. All the bowlers do it when they’re fired up and trying to get a wicket for their team. I spoke to Ussie after as well and we were all good. He was just like, “Mate, just be careful what you say.” It was nothing against him and we had a good chat. He’s a nice guy and I’ve always gotten on well with him, having played against him a few times," he stated.
