Sydney: India skipper Virat Kohli has started his intense preparations for the upcoming test series against Australia in Sydney. The Test series is part of India’s all-formats tour of Australia, which is scheduled to start on November 27 with a three-match ODI series.

The 32-year-old batting maestro took to Twitter to express his love for Test cricket practice sessions. The captain shared a video of him playing some pleasing shots and captioned it: ‘Love test cricket practice sessions’.

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) on Tuesday (November 17) posted more videos of Team India’s practice session on their Twitter handle.

Kohli will only play the first Test in Adelaide before returning to Mumbai after being granted paternity leave by the BCCI for the birth of his first child. The last time Virat Kohli and Co. visited Australia, they made history by winning the 4-Test series by the scoreline of 2-1.
