As excitement builds for the Border-Gavaskar series between India and Australia, former cricketer M. S. K. Prasad has expressed confidence in Virat Kohli returning to form. In 2024 Tests, Kohli has scored 245 runs in ten innings, but his performance in the ICC World Test Championship shows promise with 556 runs across eight Tests.
Prasad emphasized Kohli's affinity for Australian conditions, calling them akin to a duck taking to water. He predicted the star batter would relish the upcoming matches more than ever. The series is set to start on November 22 at Perth with subsequent Tests in Adelaide, Brisbane, and Melbourne before culminating in Sydney.
India's squad announcement for the series has attracted attention, with some notable omissions like Shami. Rohit Sharma and deputy Jasprit Bumrah will lead an eclectic mix of seasoned and emerging players, hoping to make their mark in this historic contest.
