India has a phenomenal batter by the name Virat Kohli whose name featured before the first ODI of a three-match series against Australia at the Optus Stadium in Perth. The 36-year old was seen smiling and laughing with his colleagues as Team India finished their second day of practice and was in a light-hearted mood.
Virat Kohli is about to come back to the international cricket arena after an absence of seven months to the Indian side. The last year to play in the champions trophy, the former India captain was surprised to be back in the national team.
Star Sports uploaded a video on X which exposed the light side of the cricketer. The veteran in the video is having fun throughout the session and laughing at all the mischiefs. He was caught laughing with Arshdeep Singh, KL Rahul, Axar Patel, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Harshit Rana.

Meanwhile, following practice, the modern-day great signed autographs and took photographs with a number of fans. Kohli, who has 1327 runs in 29 ODIs in Australia at an average of more than 51, will be hungry to add to that total and help India win the series down under. Furthermore, Australian opener Travis Head discussed Kohli and Rohit Sharma’s comeback to international cricket after a seven-month absence.
“They have been awesome for India, I guess Axar can speak more highly about them than I. But [they are] two quality players, two of the great white-ball players. Virat is probably the greatest white-ball player. Rohit is probably not far behind,” Head told the media.
