All eyes are on India's star batter Virat Kohli as India is chasing the mammoth 444-run target on the Fifth day of the World Test Championship (WTC) final at the Oval in London on Sunday. Virat who failed to deliver in the first innings, learnt from his mistake and batted solidly in the second innings. He is at the crease with 44 (60)*. India's run machine on the fourth day of WTC final joined an elite list as he became the fifth Indian batter to score more than 2000 runs against Australia.
One of the greatest cricketers of all time, Virat Kohli truly seems to have entered a 'purple patch' in his career after a slump that lasted for more than two years. As the Indian cricket team looks to clinch the ICC World Test Championship final, Kohli poured his heart out, highlighting how tricky things were for him over the last couple of years. The off-field controversies surely had a role to play in the iconic batter's on-field struggles. But now, Virat is happy to be back to his best.
The moment of reckoning has come for the Indian team, with Rohit Sharma's men needing 280 runs to beat Australia on the 5th day of the ICC World Test Championship final. In the middle are two veterans -- Virat Kohli and Ajinkya Rahane -- who have won the team numerous battles in Tests over the years. As the subcontinent giants prepare for the final day's action at the Oval in London, Kohli shared a cryptic story on Instagram, giving fans a glimpse into his mindset.
Virat Kohli failed to make a noticeable contribution in India's first innings of the ongoing World Test Championship final against Australia. The batter scored only 14 runs off 31 balls as a bouncing short ball from Mitchell Starc hit the shoulder of his bat and went into the hands of Steve Smith at slip. Pointing out a major flow in Kohli's batting, former India cricketer Sanjay Manjrekar said that he needs to start batting from the back foot rather than trying to come on the front foot every ball.
