Virat Kohli has scored 1,352 runs in 13 test matches on Australian soil, in which six centuries are included, with the highest score being 169. However, this time, it is not going to be that easy for him because he does not have good form, and in the last year, he did not score any century in the test, which he scored against West Indies on July 21st, 2023.

In the 5 test matches, Virat Kohli will have all the chances to score, but the Australian bowling lineup is going to test him hard because, for the first test, Rohit Sharma will also not be in the lineup, which makes him the main batter to guide the youngster to play their part.

India will also miss Shubman Gill in the first test due to an injury in the simulation practice match in which he picked the injury on his left-hand thumb.
