Virat Kohli on Sunday smashed a brilliant 50 in just 94 balls on the third day of the first Test in Perth, to continue India's lead against the mighty Australians.
Kohli, who was out after scoring merely 5 runs in the first innings, appears to have found his rhythm or perhaps regained the much needed momentum in the second. He went on to smash three fours and a six in the innings and even built a strong sixth-wicket partnership with Washington Sundar.
This half-ton marks Kohli's 32nd Test fifty, sixth against Australia and second in Perth and above anything else, it marks an end to his forgettable Test season thus far.
In 2018, when Kohli was here as captain, he was the first batsman to score a Test century on the Optus soil and this one till date remains the most iconic one.
India have continued to be in the driver's seat even on the third day of the first test match against Australia with a commanding 440-run lead. The visitors ended their second innings at 359-5 at tea, with Virat Kohli (40 not out) and Washington Sundar (14 not out) at the crease.
