Virat Kohli would be creating many records in his illustrious career. One of that would be of leading India to a Test series victory for the first time in the Australian soil.
Australia are now at one of the lowest moments in their cricketing history. No, it's not because they are without their best batsman Steven Smith or because they would miss the exuberance of David Warner. It's because they are led by a weak captain Tim Paine. Paine has a passable horoscope that does not promise greatness and in fact, even shows the possibility of him being the crestfallen figure under difficult situations.
This is India's best chance to win a test series down under. Australian Justin Langer has still time to establish himself as a great coach and India can sneak a tournament win before that. India's Prithvi Shaw injuring himself could turn to be blessing in disguise as Rohit Sharma has it in him to play a couple of a blinder of innings that will redefine his test career. Debilitated Planet-Y (1999 JV127) has already done its job and both Rahul and Rahane would regain their magic touch.
With the bowlers backing the batters well, this could be one of the best Indian teams to have visited Australia. The talismanic Indian skipper will be in a different zone altogether. He will lead the team from the front and Planet-Z (2008 FC76) will help extend his magical run in tests.
It would be a hard fought series. The Australian would come hard at the Indians and won't give an inch. But unlike in England, this time, the Indian contingent, coach Shastri included, would have learnt the lessons and seize the key moments in the contests to come up trumps in a historic tournament victory.
