All eyes will be set on the star player Virat Kohli as he has to show his best side against the Aussies to clinch the maiden WTC title. Along with other senior players such as skipper Rohit and the top-order batter Pujara, his responsibility will be to deliver solid numbers to the team in the top order.

In the previous Test series against Australia, he gained his lost form in the fourth Test held at Ahmedabad’s Narendra Modi Stadium. Scoring the 28th century of his Test career, he ended the Test century drought by getting to the three-figure mark after more than three years. With 297 runs in six innings of five matches, he ended up as the second-leading run-scorer in the tournament.

The 34-year-old has played a lot of cricket in England and keeping the fact in mind, he will look forward to using his experience to bag the upcoming match in June. In 31 innings of 16 Tests in England, he has scored 1022 runs with two hundreds and five half-centuries. While talking about his numbers against Australia, the dashing batter has 1979 runs in with eight centuries and five fifties in 42 innings of 24 Tests.
