Virat Kohli fit, will bat in the third India-Australia TestPhoto: BCCI New Delhi: Saturday morning came as a refresher for the Indian cricket team as Virat kohli was seen up and ready in whites to come out and bat at his usual No. 4 position. In a video shared on twitter by BCCI, the Indian captain was seen practicing his shots without any discomfort. Notably, Umesh Yadav had confirmed that Virat would fit to bat. "Bandage will obviously remain after an injury. But I think he's fit to play. The way he's practising at the nets it seems he's all set to come back," Yadav said. Kohli had jammed his shoulder while diving to stop a boundary on Day 1 of the third India-Australia and since then has been out of the field. The news comes in as a major boost for the Indian batting line up as Australia have put on a formidable 451 in their first innings.
