After Australia sealed a historic win in Mohali, the series is now locked at 2-2 and the decider will be played at the Feroz Shah Kotla Stadium in Delhi. With the series on the line, the Indian team led by Virar Kohli would be keen to put their best foot forward and the management would hope, the players step up and respond to the situation.

Kohli, on reaching his hometown, posted an adorable photo with his pet dog with the caption: Touchdown Delhi on his Instagram handle.

The captain was not too impressed with the performance of his bowlers and fielders after the loss in Mohali and identified specific areas where the side needed to improve.

“The wicket remained good throughout. We’ve been on the wrong side of the dew twice in two games, but that’s not an excuse. Especially with five down, giving 10 runs an over in the end was a bit of a harsh pill to swallow, but, look, it was very difficult to bowl in the end,” Kohli said at the post-match presser.

“The guys tried their best, but Ashton played a hell of a knock. [Peter] Handscomb played a really good innings too, to hold the innings together. [Usman] Khawaja was good again, but I think Ashton was the gamechanger,” he further added.
