However, despite former Indian captain Virat Kohli being out of form before this series, former Australian opener David Warner is worried about Australia. Warner says that Kohli is going to come forward during this series, because Kohli gives his best against Australia in Australia. However, for your information, let us tell you that the 36-year-old experienced player is currently struggling with poor form in red ball cricket. In the last five years, Kohli has scored only 3 centuries in the biggest format of the game, whereas in the recently concluded three-match Test series against New Zealand, Kohli had scored only 93 runs in 6 innings. India had to face 3-0 defeat in this series. David Warner gave a big statement Let us tell you that before the start of BGT between Australia and India, in his column written for Herald Sun, Warner said – I am worried about Virat Kohli, but not for the same reasons as everyone else. After India’s crushing 3-0 Test series defeat to New Zealand this month, people want to write off Virat, but I am really worried for Australia. This is the Border-Gavaskar Trophy and we know Virat always steps up in Australia and takes on that challenge completely like almost no one else has. I am really worried for the Australian cricket team that he (Kohli) is going to come out and score some runs.

IND vs BAN: Shakib is trying everything possible to regain his form: Najumal Hossain Shanto
India defeated Bangladesh by 280 runs in the first Test match. Shakib al hasan and Najmul Shanto (Image Credit- Twitter The first match of the ongoing two-match Test series between India and Bangladesh (IND vs BAN) was played at MA Chidambaram Stadium in Chennai. Let us tell you that in this match, the performance of former Bangladesh captain Shakib Al Hasan with the ball and bat was very disappointing. In the Chennai Test match, Shakib conceded 50 runs in 8 overs in the first innings and then 79 runs in 13 overs in the second innings. Apart from this, he could not do anything special with the bat as well and could score only 32 and 25 runs in both the innings. In the match, India achieved a big victory against Bangladesh by 280 runs. So Shakib Al Hasan has faced a lot of criticism after this mediocre performance. However, now a big statement from captain Nazmul Hussain Shanto has come out defending the former captain. Shanto says that Shakib is trying his best to regain his form. Nazmul Hussain Shanto defends Shakib Al Hasan After the first Test match between India and Bangladesh ended in Chennai, Shanto said- As a captain, I pay attention to how hard a player is working on his game. Shakib is trying his best to get back in form. Our fast bowlers were doing a great job and Mehdi Hasan Miraz was also bowling well. We took six wickets early, so I didn’t feel the need to use Shakib too much. However, now it will be interesting to see how Shakib will perform in the second Test match to be held at Green Park Stadium in Kanpur from September 27. If Bangladesh has to challenge a strong team like India during this Test series, then Shakib will have to perform better with the ball and bat.
