“Good time at Perth. Bloody hell, as if we were not suffering enough at point,” the Australian Prime Minister said as he met the Indian team. It was Kohli’s reply that won everyone’s hearts on social media. “Always got to add some spice to it,” Kohli said in response.
The practice match has been arranged as a preparatory fixture for the Indian team’s upcoming pink-ball Test against Australia in Adelaide.
“The squad contains a mix of experience combined with some promising emerging players in Australian cricket. The Prime Minister’s XI match presents an opportunity for a highly-talented squad to impress against a strong Indian team in their only pink-ball hit out prior to the second Test,” Cricket Australia’s chief selector George Bailey said.
“We are utilising the opportunity to maintain Scott Boland’s match fitness in his preparations as part of the Test squad. We thank the Prime Minister for his input into the squad which sees some of the country’s most exciting young cricketers mixed with some highly experienced players,” he added.
