Australian pacer Pat Cummins said on Sunday that Virat Kohli is a class player and he was going to return to form at some point of time. Australia is going to start their tour of India with the first T20i in Mohali on September 20. The next T20I match will take place in Nagpur on September 23, followed by the third and final T20I match in Hyderabad on September 25. "To be totally honest, I did not see any of that tournament (Asia Cup). I think Sri Lanka won? Honestly, I did not see any of it. I saw Virat Kohli, I think he scored a hundred, yeah h is a class player, he was always going to return to form at some point in time. He is going to be a challenge this next week," said Cummins in a pre-match press conference.
Virat Kohli found his touch during the recently concluded Asia Cup 2022, in which he finished as the second-highest run scorer in the tournament and also scored his much anticipated 71st international ton. Kohli scored 276 runs in five matches at an average of 92.00 with one century and two half-centuries. Talking about talks with his side to adjust to Indian conditions, Cummins said that games in India are played at a different pace and boundaries are smaller. "I think you need to adapt really quickly. You will have some days where the wicket is a bit slower, then cutters and those types of things are really important for the bowlers. So, everyone here has played a lot in India and everyone understands it. It is a format you have to be up for, and if it does not work on the day, then you need to move on quickly from it," he added.
