Kohli's average is 49.21 right now. Not that it matters
Kohli is in amazing form, it's tough to determine who the best is between him and Smith.
England's session. Clear evidence that Cook is starting to hold them back.
Cook was off for 1 over...

Kane is is behind plenty of batsmen in Tests and more than 20 in ODI's. Gets too much credit for the soft runs he scored in Aus.After the Aus tour of India, will get some idea of who the better batsman is. I expect Smith to the highest run scorer for Australia though.
In tests,
Smith
Kohli (just behind)
Root (scores runs but too many soft dismissals)
Kane.
In ODIs,
ABD
Kohli
Root
Warner
De kock
Smith
.
.
Kane.
In T20Is,
No comparison. Kohli is head and shoulders above everyone.

Why has England not taken new ball?
Watch Jayant's technique @Rahane.
Not that great tbh.
Nair doesn't realize that he would be thrown out if Rohit comes back should work harder on his batting,Rahul has taken his place for granted though.

I usually don't feel this but I felt sorry for Root when he dropped Jayant.
If w can win here, Pant deserves a chance in the final test.
I shudder when I think Rohit will bat at 6 for India.
I don't trust him at all. We need a proper bat.
This innings is a masterpiece in so many ways. Could probably go down as one of his all time best
Does anyone back India to score 500?
Jayant averages 70 in Test Cricket.
What a find for India.
That's the worst shot by Kohli whole day.
Kohli continues to demonstrate all the supreme skills in his locker with a rapid readjustment to steer a rising Anderson ball to third man. A lesser batsman (ie. every other batsman) would likely have been undone by that.
25 with the ball.
70 with the bat.
Greatest ever in the making.![]()
kohli now averages 50+ in all three formats of the game.
:wow
On par with KP's masterclass 4 years ago.
Not on par.
But just below it.
KP's knock came on a tougher pitch. Towards the end, his assault of Ojha (our best bowler) when the pitch started going BONKERS remains imprinted in my mind.
The 186 is haunting,My colleague then had remarked about how he is never going to forgive Indian team for losing like thateven if they beat Aus.
