Great Barrier Reef Arena: Australia's big-hitting all-rounder Glenn Maxwell said seeing premier batters Steve Smith and Virat Kohli go head-to-head in the upcoming Border-Gavaskar Trophy will make for a pretty exciting watch.

Smith has amassed 2042 runs in 19 Tests against India, averaging an incredible 65.87 with nine centuries and five fifties against his name. On the other hand, Kohli has also made the same number of runs in 25 Tests against Australia at a remarkable average of 47.48, including hitting eight tons.

In 13 Test matches Kohli has played in Australia, the right-handed batter has amassed 1,352 runs, including six centuries and four fifties, at an average of 54.08. "I think probably the way that the two superstar batters, Steve Smith and Virat Kohli, probably head-to-head, seeing how their dominance, I suppose, is asserted in the series and how much of an influence that has on who takes home the Border Gavaskar Trophy.
