Virat Kohli batting record in Adelaide, IND vs AUS Test: Virat Kohli, India's star batter, kicked off the ongoing Border-Gavaskar Trophy in the best possible way as he came up with a match-winning effort in the first Test at Perth.

Kohli smashed a remarkable century, 30th hundred of his Test career, as India clinched a 295-run win to go 1-0 up in the five-match series.

As India look to extend their lead in the all-important series, Kohli will be aiming to maintain his form which has come his way back after a while.

Australia is known to be one of Kohli's favourite opponents and has had a promising batting record in this country over the years.

The Adelaide Test, which will be a pink-ball match, is scheduled to begin on December 6.

India will be heading into the Adelaide Test with bitter memories. They will be looking to overcome the demons of the 2020 pink-ball Test at the venue, in which India was skittled out for just 36 runs, their lowest Test score.
