Melbourne: The first match of the four-match Test series between India and Australia will be played in Adelaide on 17 December today. With the day-night test taking place, this match will be historic, as well as Indian team captain Virat Kohli will also be eyeing a world record. The first Test played by Pink Ball will be the last match of Captain Kohli on the tour of Australia. In this context, he will also have the last chance to make a world record in the Pink Ball Test.
Now the question is what is that record, which Virat Kohli will break and make a new record. Virat Kohli will surpass former Australia captain and batsman Ricky Ponting by making this record in the Pink Ball Test. As a captain in international cricket, Virat and Ponting currently have 41-41 centuries. If Kohli scores a century in one of the two innings of the Pink Ball Test, then he will be able to record the most international century as a captain.
For the first time since 2008, Kohli has not scored a century in the calendar year. In this sense, the pink ball test is also important for them so that they score a century and end their century's drought in this calendar year. The Test match played in Adelaide will be the Indian team's first day-night test on foreign soil. Virat will also be able to finish his tour of Australia touring in a great way by scoring a century.
