Australia’s captain Mitchell Starc is excited to compete in the forthcoming Border Gavaskar Trophy against India’s legendary player Virat Kohli. In their 19 innings together, Kohli and Starc have faced off, and in the Test format, the Indian has been extremely dominant against the left-arm bowler. Against Starc’s blistering pace, the seasoned Indian hitter has scored 291 runs at an average of 59.00. However, Starc has only got four opportunities to show Kohli how to get to the pavilion. Even though Kohli defeated him in their head-to-head match. Starc admitted that he still enjoys his confrontations with the Indian ahead of the next Big Game T20.
Virat Kohli and I have played a lot of cricket against one another, which is why I like our battles. I always have some exciting fights. It’s usually a fantastic match and one we both enjoy. As I’ve managed to get him out a couple of times and he’s undoubtedly scored a fair number runs against me, Starc told Star Sports.
Virat Kohli & Mitchell Starc
There will be other thrilling matches on the field than Kohli’s matchup with Starc in Australia.
All-rounder Glenn Maxwell thinks the match between Steve Smith of Australia and Virat Kohli of India will be exciting to watch.
The manner that Virat Kohli and Steve Smith, two incredible hitters, go head-to-head, I believe has a lot to do with how their dominance is established throughout the series and how much of an impact it has on who wins the Border Gavaskar Trophy. Maxwell recently told Star Sports that it will be interesting to see the two best players of our generation go head-to-head. One of them is going to make a lot of runs, if not both of them.
On November 22, Australia and India will play their first Test match of the Border-Gavaskar series in Perth.
