Indian player ready to play Australia Series test Match held on 9th February 2023

The Border- Gavaskar jewel between India and Australia is only days down from its inception, with the two cricketing titans squaring off in a 4- match contest. The likes of Virat Kohli, Cheteshwar Pujara, Steve Smith, Pat Cummins, R Ashwin, etc. will all be in the limelight in this star-speckled assignment. While a number of records are anticipated to be created in the series, the Indian brace of Kohli and Pujara are formerly on the cusp of a special corner that they can reach before the series concludes.

Pujara and Kohli, who are two of the most dependable batters in the Indian platoon at present, have added up an aggregate of 1893 runs and 1682 runs in the Border- Gavaskar jewel so far. However, they both will enter the 2000-run club in the series, If Pujara manages to add 107 runs to his census and Kohli 218 runs. 

Only the likes of Sachin Tendulkar, Ricky Ponting, Rahul Dravid, and Michael Clarke have further runs than the in this series so far. Among active batters, Pujara and Kohli are the loftiest run-getters in the Border- Gavaskar jewel.

Most runs in Border- Gavaskar series

• Sachin Tendulkar 3262 runs in 65 innings( 34 matches)
• Ricky Ponting 2555 runs in 51 innings( 29 matches)
• VVS Laxman 2434 runs in 54 innings( 29 matches)
• Rahul Dravid 2143 runs in 60 innings( 32 matches)
• Michael Clarke 2049 runs in 40 innings( 22 matches)
• Cheteshwar Pujara 1893 runs in 37 innings( 20 matches)
• Virat Kohli 1682 runs in 36 innings( 20 matches)

Pujara has recaptured his status as one of the most dependable batters in the format since being dropped from the side for the Sri Lanka series last time. The expert batter put in the hard yards in County Cricket to revitalize his form and earn a justified recall.

As for Kohli, the last 2- 3 times were not stylish for him with the club but he has truly turned effects around, slamming hundreds in both T20Is and Tests. It's time for him to do the same in Tests as well.
