Indian skipper Virat Kohli and the team management were slammed by several cricket experts as well as fans for the team selection following their massive defeat in the second Test match against Australia by 146 runs at Perth. Virat Kohli also received a lot of flak for his on-field behaviour during the Perth Test match.
Despite India’s massive loss at the Perth Test, former Indian skipper Sourav Ganguly firmly believes that Team India has the ability to bounce back in the next two Test matches against Australia.
“Lots of talk going around in media specially Australian .. watch out for india against this australia ..still two tests to go and india can win both.. don’t go too far ahead everyone @bcci,” Sourav Ganguly said on his official Twitter handle.

The ongoing four-match Test series between India and Australia is now levelled at 1-1.
The third Test match will be played at Melbourne Cricket Ground, Melbourne starting on Thursday, December 27.
Earlier, former Indian pacer Zaheer Khan had put his weight behind Virat Kohli for his on-field aggression.
“I would say (Virat) stick to what you know best. Stick to what has got you so much of success. You can’t move away from your success formula. It doesn’t matter what others are saying (about Kohli). Series in Australia have always been (intense) like this,” Zaheer Khan was quoted as saying by PTI.
