Australian batsman Usman Khawaja has laughed off being caught grabbing the behind of Adam Zampa during a national anthem ceremony.
The video, seemingly captured by a fan sitting behind the Australian team before Saturday's one-day international with New Zealand in Wellington, has spread viral on Facebook and been viewed more than 212,000 times.
Khawaja played down the incident when asked about the video on Twitter.
"hahaha oh boy. Didn't realize there were cameras filming from behind," he tweeted.
"haha it was all consensual. Just have a joke with the debutant #playon"
