Thus, Kohli is rewriting the history books as he is batting in the league of his own. The talisman batsman has been the most consistent batsman in the world and he is currently the best batter in both ICC Test rankings and ODI Rankings. On the other hand, Ben Duckett has thus far played only four Test and three ODIs for England. He is also regarded as a bunny to Ravichandran Ashwin.

Meanwhile, Australia was able to stay afloat in the series as they were 2-0 down in the series. Ergo, it was a must-win match for the visitors. Usman Khawaja scored his maiden ODI hundred and Australian skipper Aaron Finch was able to get back into form. Khawaja was awarded the Man of the match for scoring 104.
