Virat Kohli has been going through a rough patch in his international career. His poor form continued in the Bangladesh Test series where he scored 99 runs in four innings. Then he failed to come up to his standard during the recently concluded New Zealand series, where India lost their first home Test series in 12 long years. Virat’s last Test century came in July 2023 against West Indies, since then he hasn’t been able to convert his initial good starts into a good score.

Before the highly anticipated Border-Gavaskar Trophy series, former Australian captain Michael Clarke expressed confidence in Virat Kohli’s ability to perform well in Australia, given his past success there. Clarke also anticipated that Rohit Sharma would find his form, suggesting that India’s captain, despite a current slump, could also deliver with the bat. In a conversation with Around the Wicket Podcast, Clarke said: "India know they've played well out here in Australia and they'll still come here with plenty of talent & that self-belief, but hopefully fresh. That's the key for the Indian players. Virat Kohli - you can't be that good for such a long period of time and just turn the tap off. So once he freshens up, and Rohit Sharma the same, you'll see the best of them.” Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli had a tough time during India’s home Test series against Bangladesh and New Zealand. However, they must regain their form in the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy, as India’s chances of qualifying for the World Test Championship final largely depend on their performances.
