Ahead of the second Test match between India and Australia, Indian fans are on edge after Virat Kohli was seen receiving treatment for a knee niggle during India’s training session in Adelaide. Kohli, who has been in excellent form this year, was spotted with his right knee bandaged, raising concerns about his fitness.

This comes as India gears up for the Day-Night Test starting December 6, with hopes of extending their lead in the Border-Gavaskar Trophy. Kohli’s recent performance in the Perth Test, where he scored a crucial century off 143 balls in India’s dominant 294-run win, has been pivotal in India’s success.

His knock helped India recover from a poor first innings, and it secured his place in history as the Indian batter with the most Test hundreds in Australia, surpassing Sachin Tendulkar. Kohli now has seven centuries on Australian soil, trailing only Jack Hobbs for the most by any batter in Australia.

Despite the injury scare, Kohli’s leadership and performances continue to be vital for India. Fans will be hoping that the knee issue is merely a precaution, and Kohli can maintain his excellent form to lead India to victory in Adelaide.
