Having become the first Indian team to win a test series-opener on Australian soil, Virat Kohli's side are determined to keep the momentum rolling into the second clash in Perth and inch closer to a breakthrough series triumph Down Under.

India will be keen to continue the winning momentum. It seems that captain Kohli is leading by example and doing everything to help his team- even giving up his business class seat.

Apparently, Virat Kohli and wife Anushka Sharma gave up their business class seats to allow Indian pacers to get some much needed rest before the second Test match in Perth.

According to former England captain Michael Vaughan, Virat and Anushka gave up their business class on the trip to Perth from Adelaide so the pace bowlers can travel in more comfort.  

"Witnessed @imVkohli & his wife give up their Business class seats to allow the Quicks more comfort & space on the trip from Adelaide - Perth !! Danger Australia .. Not only are the quicks more relaxed .. The Skipper is managing his troops with great human touches #AUSvIND" tweeted Vaughan.

Virat and Anushka are celebrating their first marriage anniversary on Tuesday. 

As number of business class seats are few on domestic flights, sometimes some members have to travel in economy.

India were made to work harder than expected in the 31-run win at Adelaide Oval, and their bowlers will have only three days' rest before taking to the field again at Perth Stadium on Friday.

Despite the quick turnaround, Kohli suggested the tourists were leaping out of their skins to land another blow on Tim Paine's shaky side in the four-match series.

"They are at their peak, all of them together and it's something that we as batsman look at as an opportunity to put in good performances," Kohli said of his attack, rated India's most potent in years.

"We will be, in every test match, gunning for a result."

Indian pacers Ishant Sharma, Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami enjoyed a stellar debut as a pace unit in Australia, sharing 14 of the 20 wickets at Adelaide Oval, bowling with sustained pressure and limiting the hosts to a single 50-run partnership.
