India’s star batter Virat Kohli will look to continue his good start to the Border-Gavaskar Trophy with the bat when the team takes on Australia in the second Test in Adelaide.
Kohli has an enviable record on Australian soil, scoring 1457 runs in 14 matches across four trips Down Under. The 36-year-old’s run tally in Australia is second only to Sachin Tendulkar’s 1809 runs in 20 matches.
The 36-year-old has historically performed well in Adelaide, scoring three hundreds and a fifty in four matches at the Adelaide Oval.
