The sight of the Sydney newspaper’s front page was enough to make one gasp aloud. Virat Kohli’s face, above folded arms, gazed back from The Daily Telegraph, the photograph taking up the entire top half of the page. A small image of Pat Cummins sat in the bottom left corner. The most arresting feature, however, was the gold headline in Hindi with an English translation underneath: Fight for the ages.
The rest of the page was split evenly between the two languages with a message from Australia’s Test captain while on the back page was an article on India’s opening batter, Yashasvi Jaiswal, in Punjabi and English.
