New Delhi: After gracing the front page of a Sydney-based tabloid few days back, Virat Kohli is back on the front cover of another Australia tabloid as the star batter’s fever has gripped the entire nation ahead of the much-awaited Border-Gavaskar Trophy. The crucial five-match Test series between India and Australia begins on November 22 in Perth and the entire Australian belt seems to awed by star batter.
On Friday, just a week ahead of the start of the marquee event, cuttings and photos of Kohli featuring on the cover page of the Perth-based tabloid were viral on social media. The star Indian batter looks dashing on the front page of the tabloid, which has a heading in bold ‘KOHLIWOOD’, signifying the immense love and craze people of Australia have for the India batting megastar. The Aussie tabloid has also referred to Virat Kohli as ‘Cricket God’.

Virat Kohli on Sydney Morning Herald
Apart from the Paris-based tabloid, Virat Kohli also featured on the sports page of Australian newspaper Sydney Morning Herald on Friday. The headline on the newspaper mentioned ‘A Heavy Crown’ in bold letters. Being part of the two Australian tabloids on the same day displays the craziness of the star player in that part of the world.

Meanwhile, all the eyes will be on the star batter and skipper Rohit Sharma in the all-important series. Since both the players have been experiencing a bad form since a long time, the entire nation would be focused on their performance when it matters the most. The last Test series against New Zealand also didn’t prove to be good for the batting maestros.
