The form of top Indian batsmen like Virat Kohli, Rohit Sharma, Yashasvi Jaiswal, and Shubman Gill remains a matter of concern for Team India. Especially Virat Kohli, who is constantly getting out on the same type of ball. Virat has scored only one century in five innings so far in the current Border Gavaskar Trophy. Apart from this, he has been a flop in all four innings. Tampering with the ball on the off stump is constantly causing trouble for him. The same was seen in the Gaba Test as well. However, after flopping in the first innings at Gaba, Virat Kohli took a big step.

During the first innings of the Gaba Test, Virat Kohli was out for just three runs. He had played just 16 balls and was dismissed cheaply after playing a delivery from Josh Hazlewood that was going outside the off stump. But after this, Virat took a big step to deal with this problem and he went away from the team and was seen sweating it out in the nets. On one hand, the fourth day's play was going on in Gaba, while on the other hand, Virat was seen practicing in the nets.

Shubman Gill also did net practice in the nets with Virat Kohli. Gill has also failed to make an impression with his bat on the current tour so far. Once again his bat flopped in the Gaba Test as well. After this, he was also seen practicing batting in the nets in the middle of the live match. Gill could not play the Perth Test due to injury. While in Adelaide, he scored 59 runs in both the innings. At the same time, he was out for just 1 run in the first innings of the Gaba Test.

Australia scored 445 runs

Australia put around 450 runs on the board in the first innings. With the help of Steve Smith, Travis Head's centuries and Alex Carey's half century, Australia scored 445 runs in the first innings. For India, fast bowler Jaspreet Bumrah took 6 wickets. Mohammad Siraj took two wickets while Nitish Kumar Reddy and Akash Deep got one wicket each.
