Virat Kohli vs Australia: The Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 has entered an exciting phase. In the first Test match in Perth, India defeated Australia by 295 runs and took a 1-0 lead in the 5-Test match. However, India failed to maintain their lead in the second Test match. India’s batsmen could not face the pink ball in the day-night Test match in Adelaide as Australia won by 10 wickets and tied the series 1-1. The two teams will now play the third Test match at the Gabba, Brisbane. The match will begin on December 14 and all eyes will be on Virat Kohli’s performance.
In the first Test match, Virat Kohli hit a brilliant hundred in the second innings but in the second Test match he failed in both the innings. In such a situation, Kohli will now have a good chance of making a comeback in the third Test match. Even if Kohli fails to bat in the Gabba Test, a great record will be recorded in his name. In fact, Kohli will create new history as soon as he enters the Gabba Test match. By playing in the Gabba Test, Virat Kohli will score a special hundred which only has Sachin Tendulkar’s name so far.
The match against Australia will create new history
Let us tell you that the Gabba Test match will be the 121st Test match of Kohli’s Test career. Kohli will be playing his 28th Test match against Australia. With this, Virat will become the second player in the world to play 100 matches against Australia in international cricket. Currently, this record only exists in the name of Sachin Tendulkar. Sachin played a total of 110 matches with Australia in all three formats. Virat, meanwhile, has played 99 matches with Australia so far. This includes 27 Test matches, 49 ODI matches and 23 T20I matches.
