Khawaja as opener averages 99

Of course, he has only played as opener in Aus, Pak and UAE. He might not do as well in swinging conditions in Eng or NZ.

And on a separate note, what a comeback this has been from him! Before he was recalled, he used to average 40. Now he is averaging 47!

Kohli doesn't have the luxury of playing against minnow level attacks on highways. 

He scored two hundreds in a Test against Anderson, Broad, Wood and Stokes. There were only 2 other 50s for Aus in that Test

Facing SL & WI bowlers on Indian pitches is tougher than facing Pakistani bowlers on highways. Pak doesn't even have a single half decent spinner. It's all SSA or bust. 

 

The first test against SL was a batting paradise...especially first innings.

 

Even one test against NZ was super slow.

 

Oval test was unbelievably flat.

 

Kohli just kept failing.

Are bhai mine was a troll comment in reply to our alleged padosi poster lol. Defending Kohli (or putting down Khawaja) wasn't my motive. Anyway pitches in this Pak-Aus series are waaaay too docile, unlike any I have seen in recent times. 

 

Btw it seems ICF hates Kohli more than they hate padosis. :hysterical:

Lets see we have ashwin , left handers biggest nemsis but he is one guy whom we shud be most wary of

Remember he also help Aus win ODI series in India avg 76 when Kulcha was at their peak 

That's going to be interesting then. But can he survive bumrah and shami or siraj?
