Virat Kohli can find batting form by antagonising Australia: Ravi Shastri
India TodayFormer Indian coach Ravi Shastri reckons that batting stalwart Virat Kohli should embrace his fiery and combative persona against Australia in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy to rediscover his dominant form in Test cricket. With the opening Test of the much-anticipated series set to begin in Perth on Friday, Shastri believes Kohli's trademark aggression could be the key to reversing his recent struggles in Test cricket. Shastri, who coached India to a historic 2-1 series victory in Australia in 2020-21, remains confident in Kohli's abilities but acknowledges the need for a spark to reignite his form. Shastri said that he would have preferred India's top first Test XI to face an organized opponent in a warm-up but trusted the planning behind choosing an intrasquad game with India A members in Perth.
