Team India has stepped up its preparations for the much-anticipated Border-Gavaskar Trophy series. Ahead of the difficult five-match Test series against Australia, star cricketer Virat Kohli is the first member of the Indian team to arrive in Perth.
Kohli went to the airport with his family on Sunday evening. To get ready for the series, which the 36-year-old is thought will commence as soon as possible. Kohli has proven his point by coming early—that he wants to adapt to the Australian weather.
The Indian team will begin practising at WACA ground on Tuesday in order to sharpen their skills ahead of the Perth Test. However for security reasons, the area has been placed under lockdown to avoid disturbances to the Indian camp.
This approach seeks to keep all of its strategies and arrangements for the series under wraps. Other than her husband, India expects to put on a show in the opening match of the series with Kohli leading the way.
Virat Kohli arrives in Australia:
Late on Sunday night, Virat Kohli was seen at Chhatrapati Shivaji International Airport in Mumbai with his family, which included his wife Anushka Sharma and their kids Vamika and Akaay. When they got there, Kohli politely asked photographers to respect his family’s privacy by not snapping any photos of them.
But Kohli himself was more than willing to cooperate and show his humility by posing for pictures with the press. This gesture demonstrates Kohli’s harmony between his personal life and celebrity. Former Indian cricket player Gautam Gambhir has backed Kohli before he departs for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy series.
Ricky Ponting questioned Kohli’s form and said that no other player would have survived with just two hundred in five years. Gambhir backed Rohit Sharma and Kohli against Ponting’s criticism.
In the forthcoming series against Australia, Kohli will want to quiet his detractors and get back to his best. Fans anticipate a powerful return from the seasoned batsman because of his focus and resolve.
