Virat Kohli Record In Melbourne: Former Indian cricket team captain Virat Kohli has a knack for making records whenever he steps onto the field. While his recent performances in the ongoing IND vs AUS Border-Gavaskar Test series haven't been extraordinary, his history at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) suggests he might be all set for a big innings in the upcoming IND vs AUS 4th Test.
Kohli enjoys an impressive track record at Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG), where he has played three matches and scored 316 runs in six innings at an average of 52.67. This includes a century and two half-centuries. Despite his so far average of 25.06 in the ongoing IND vs AUS Border-Gavaskar Test series, Kohli's past performances at MCG provide hope that he could turn the tide in India's favor, help the visitors take the crucial 2-1 lead.

Team India made history with back-to-back Boxing Day Test wins in 2018 and 2020. Given Kohli's MCG success and the team's recent wins, India will be looking to continue their success in IND vs AUS 2024 Boxing Day Test.

India can guarantee their place in ICC World Test Championship final by winning their remaining two matches of IND vs AUS Border-Gavaskar Trophy. However, if they don't secure wins in both Tests, the outcomes of Australia's Test series against Sri Lanka and South Africa's Test series against Pakistan could still play a big role in determining India's qualification chances.
