Virat Kohli is currently the best batsman in the world. In fact, the bowlers around the globe have had a tough time in getting the better off Virat Kohli. Thus, they make all kinds of planning to get him out. However, a six-year-old Australia boy Arnie Schiller is confident of dismissing the Indian skipper Virat Kohli. In fact, it is well said that Sky is the limit and the young boy has his own dream to get the better of the best in the business.

Meanwhile, Arnie Schiller is suffering from a rare heart condition. The young boy is also included into Australia’s squad for the Boxing day Test match set to be at Melbourne from December 26, as a kind gesture. In fact, Schiller and his family have had a tough time as the kid has spent most of his time on a hospital bed.

Arnie Schiller dreams to be a leg-spinner.

Consequently, Australia’s head coach Justin Langer wants to put a smile on the six-year-old face. Furthermore, Schiller also trained with the Australian team.

“I reckon he’ll be treated like (uncapped opener) Marcus Harris – come in for the first time in the changerooms, meet all the boys and like always when you come into that inner sanctum of the Baggy Green, it’s like joining the brotherhood,” Langer told cricket.com.au.

Furthermore, Arnie Schiller is a big fan of Australia’s off-spinner Nathan Lyon and he aspires to become a leg-spinner. Meanwhile, Nathan Lyon has been instrumental in the success of the Australian team.

“Archie will be joining the brotherhood,” Langer added.

“He’s been through some tough times spent a lot of time in a hospital bed, so anyway that we can help to put a smile on his face, it’s the very least we can do for him.

“Just being out on Adelaide Oval, in the sunshine, under a nice blue sky and running around with his heroes – who, to a man, were all really moved by his story – it should be terrific for everyone.”

It is good to see that Australia has come up with a sweet gesture towards the young boy. Australia and India will square off with each other on December 6 for the first Test at Adelaide.
