England wicketkeeper-batsman Sam Billings used the word "ridiculous" to express his surprise at Kohli's batting skills. In a recent video during a practice session, the Indian skipper was seen batting at the Adelaide.
Though Billings reacted in the most surprising manner, South African veteran Allan Donald was left astounded with Kohli’s batting skills.
On Tuesday, Cricket Australia released a video of the Indian skipper in which he middles almost every delivery. The video went viral on social media and everyone was in awe of the Indian-run machine.
After watching the video, Allan Donald said: "You think his middling a few."
India began the 1 Test on a highly disappointing note. After winning the toss, they opted to bat first but couldn’t count upon their decision. The Australian pace trio jolted the Indian top-order and reduced the visitors to 56/4 before lunch.
Kohli, who was expected to rock Adelaide by becoming the fastest to 1000 runs in Australia, found himself at the receiving end as Usman Khawaja took a stunning blinder to remove the Indian skipper.
