However, now Team India has to play a five-match Test series against Australia, which is starting from November 22 in Perth. However, before the start of this Test series, former Indian player Sunil Gavaskar has presented his side regarding Virat Kohli. According to Sunil Gavaskar, Virat Kohli does not have any problem and luck is not favoring him at this time. According to Sports Tak, Sunil Gavaskar said, ‘Virat Kohli does not have any problem. Just this time luck is not on their side. We had seen how he batted in Bengaluru. His technique and art are right, he just needs luck at this time. Five-match test series between India and Australia starting from 22nd November If Team India wants to secure its place in the final of the World Test Championship, then it is very important for them to win the five-match Test series against Australia by a long margin. Virat Kohli failed to leave his mark in the Test series played against New Zealand. He was seen struggling a lot against the spinners. However, the experienced batsman would like to perform brilliantly against Australia and can be seen playing an important role in the victory of the Indian team. Currently, Team India is practicing vigorously for the upcoming Test series. If the Indian team loses the five-match Test series against Australia, then it will be very difficult for them to make it to the final of the World Test Championship.

India have already taken an unassailable 3-1 lead in the series thanks to their five-wicket win at the JSCA International Stadium Complex in Ranchi. This series will be remembered for a long time in cricket history. In fact, in this series against England, the Indian team managed to overcome the obstacles and eliminate the menace of ‘buzzball’. Many senior players of Team India were not available in this series, due to which four players got a chance to debut. While some players took advantage of that opportunity, some players could not capitalize on that opportunity.

His best score during this period has been 214 runs unbeaten.

This record is still in the name of former veteran player of Team India, Sunil Gavaskar. Sunil Gavaskar has crossed the 700-run mark twice in a Test series. The Little Master scored 774 runs in 4 matches at an impressive average of 154.80 during the Test series against West Indies in 1971.

Rohit Sharma is already 36 years old and there is a lot of pressure on him as he is the captain of India in all three formats of the game. He has just tried to reduce the burden of captaincy and put that responsibility on the young shoulders of Hardik Pandya.” “Hardik can come at number 3 or number 5” He further said, “Mumbai Indians are going to benefit by handing over the captaincy to Hardik. By doing this, he has given Rohit the freedom to play freely on top gear in the top-order. “After this, Hardik can come in at No. 3 or No. 5 and help them score 200-plus consistently.”
