Captain Virat Kohli to return to India after first Test against Australia

Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has granted ‘paternity leave’ to Virat Kohli, which means Indian skipper will return to India after the first Test against Australia in Adelaide though Kohli will be available for both limited-overs series. Last month, the right-handed top-order batsman had informed BCCI about his plans to return to India. Notably, Kohli and his wife Anushka Sharma are expecting their first child in January next year.
