WATCH: ‘Add some spice…’: Virat Kohli gives cheeky response to Australian Prime Minister on his century in Perth

The Indian squad for the Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 recently had a meeting with Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese in Canberra. PM Albanese was seen having a conversation with India’s stand-in captain Jasprit Bumrah and star batter Virat Kohli as India won over Australia in the first Test.

When doing introduction, PM Albanese made a joke about Kohli dominating in Australia. As he congratulated Kohli for his century, Albanese said, “Good ton in Perth, as if we weren’t suffering enough at that point.” Since Kohli is known for his sharp responses, he responded with a grin saying, “Always gotta add some spice to it.”

This exchange brought laughter and highlighted the friendly rivalry between India and Australia as well as the crucial connection to India loving the spice they put in the game. This banter showed the mutual respect that is shared between Kohli and the Australian PM.
