Former India all-rounder Irfan Pathan said "demons" of the Border–Gavaskar Trophy 2024-25 were back for former India captain Virat Kohli after he scored 0(8) in the first ODI against Australia in Perth. "I hope this is not the case in Adelaide and Sydney," he added. Notably, the 36-year-old scored 190 runs in five matches in the Test series in Australia.
