This time, in Australia rather than India, Virat Kohli is the talk of the town. Ahead of the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Australian media outlets are enamoured with Virat Kohli.
A number of Australian publications published in Punjabi and Hindi have featured the former Indian captain on their main page.
Ten days prior to the opening Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy, Virat arrived in Perth on Sunday night. The newspaper’s use of Kohli’s picture and the dramatic titles Yugon ki ladai (Fight for the ages) on the main page underline the match’s importance. Fans’ excitement for the five-test series was heightened by this.
The journal also included articles about Rishabh Pant and Yashasvi Jaiswal in addition to Virat Kohli. Yashasvi Jaiswal, a young Indian opener, was referred to as “Navam Raja” or “The New King” in a Pubnjabi article.
The games are slated to take place at Optus Stadium between November 22 and 26. Indian supporters are excited to see how Kohli will get ready for this new battle against Australia as training gets underway at the WACA Ground. To protect the privacy of the players, the Indian squad will practise behind closed doors.
