Do not confront Virat Kohli: Aaron Finch warns

SYDNEY: Australia should not get involved in verbal confrontation with Virat Kohli and instead adopt a measured and balanced approach against the India skipper during the first Test in Adelaide, beginning on Thursday, Aussie limited-overs skipper Aaron Finch has warned his teammates in the Test squad.

"I think the change is in the way he (Kohli) goes about it now. I think as a person he is probably a bit more relaxed out on the field and understands the tempo of the game," Finch, who is not part of the Test squad, was quoted as saying by The Sydney Morning Herald. "I think there will be times when things boil over and when you have got strong characters on either team that's going to come to a head at some point. (But) there is a fine balance there, isn't there? You don't want him to get up and about in the contest. When he does, he can be ruthless on an opposition," he said. IANS
