Aaron Finch, he limited over the captain of Australia, wants his teammates to strike a balance as they are going to confront the Indian skipper Virat Kohli in the first test match as he can turn out to be very ruthless against the Australians.

An intense rivalry is always shared on the field between India and Australia as it is filled with controversies, banters, and verbal volleys over the years.

The two teams last locked horns in the test series in 2018-19 as some heated exchanges took place between the two captains Tim Paine and Kohli.

Finch spoke to the news media outlets and said that there will be instances in the test series when things are going to boil over and both the teams are filled with strong characters on the other team that is going to take over the situation.

He also added that there is a fine balance between both the teams and the Australians do not want to let Virat Kohli off the hook as he can take away the game anytime from the Australians. Virat Kohli can be very ruthless according to Finch.

A day-night contest in Adelaide will kick start the four-match test series that is going to start on Thursday and the match has gained prominence because Kohli is going to return to India after the match concludes for the birth of his child.

Finch has been part of the last home series down under when the two teams met and according to him, the Indian skipper looked very calm in comparison to last season as he clinically goes about his job.

He also added that Kohli approaches the game in a different manner altogether that is quite different from the outings in the previous series. He has become much more relaxed on the crease and also on the field and the tempo of the game is better understood by him.

Finch has also played under the captaincy of Kohli in IPL for Royal Challengers Bangalore and said that he has been very much surprised to see the confidence of the Indian’s in the IPL this year in the UAE.

Furthermore, he said that Kohli has done a lot of preparation and planning for the opposition and his focus is on the opposition more than any other time.

Finch said that Kohli was very confident about others in the team and spent a lot of time on other cricketers. He felt very relaxed around the group.

Finch had a lot of on-field duels with Virat Kohli and his relaxed side is great to learn according to Finch.

Finch mentioned that they had some great series together where Kohli was on a different level and has been very vocal in the middle of the ground. It is a great thing to see the Indian skipper so relaxed.

Finch leads Australia to a 2-1 series victory in the ODI series.
