Kohli’s tough assignment in Australia!
Kohli has already been picked for India’s tour of Australia, where Rohit Sharma’s men are scheduled to feature in a total of 5 Test matches. Kohli’s love affair with Australia isn’t hidden from any of his fans, but his form isn’t painting a particularly rosy picture at the moment.
While experts expect Kohli to turn things around and lead India’s charge with the bat Down Under, there are those too who worry if Test retirement could be on the horizon in a case where the iconic batter fails to turn the table around.
Virat falls from the Top 20!
Senior India batter Virat Kohli took a massive hit in his ICC rankings after a terrible showing against New Zealand. In the freshly announced ICC rankings on Wednesday, 6 November, Kohli dropped down 8 places in the Test batters’ rankings. Kohli scored just 93 runs against New Zealand in 3 Test matches and is now ranked 22 in the ICC men’s batters’ rankings in the Test format.
