Virat Kohli is honing his back-foot technique ahead of the IND vs. AUS 3rd Test to be played at the Gabba in Brisbane. The Gabba is known for its fast pitch and extra bounce, challenging batters to adapt their strategies. A strong back-foot game is crucial for success at this venue, a fact that Kohli seems to be taking into account in his preparations. Before the IND vs. AUS 3rd Test, Virat Kohli had only a single Test match at the Gabba, Brisbane. Ahead of the IND vs. AUS 3rd Test match, let us check out Virat Kohli’s record in Gabba, Brisbane.
Virat Kohli record in Gabba, Brisbane
Before the IND vs AUS, 3rd Test, Virat Kohli played his only Test at the Gabba in 2014, recording scores of 19 and 1. It is worth noting that the extra bounce perturbed Kohli in that Test. Josh Hazlewood and Mitchell Johnson dismissed the Indian with back-of-a-length deliveries.
Kohli’s performance in the ongoing series has been a mixed bag. He scored an unbeaten century in the first Test at Perth but could only add 23 runs across three other innings.
