XtraTime Web Desk: India skipper Virat Kohli is another name of a record book and in ODIs he almost every day create a record & break it again. When the Men in Blue will face Australia in a World Cup clash on Sunday the run machine will get another opportunity to add another feather on his cap.
Kohli has always been good against the Australians and now he is just one century away from becoming the joint-most century getter Indian batsman against Australia in ODIs along with legendary Sachin Tendulkar (9).
When it comes to total runs scored against Australia, Kohli is third in the list of Indian batsmen with 1645 runs from 34 encounters and his average of 53.06 is the fifth best when it comes to any batsmen against Australia.
India’s quest for glory will face a stern test in formidable Australia, forcing Virat Kohli and Ravi Shastri to put their thinking caps on and contemplate a tactical rejig, as one of World Cup’s most storied rivalries resumes.
India were clinical in their six-wicket victory against a depleted South Africa while Australia, who have raised their game in the last couple of months, were professional against Afghanistan and brilliant in their come-from-behind victory against the West Indies.
