King Kohli needs just one century to break Don Bradman’s record, Root and Smith are also on target

New Delhi. Indian cricketers are going to return to the field soon after a short break. Domestic cricket will start from September 5 with the Duleep Trophy. Team India will return to the field from September 19. On this day, the teams of India and Bangladesh will clash in Chennai. Many records can also be made during the India-Bangladesh Test series. Especially Virat Kohli and Ravichandran Ashwin will be targeting many records.

Virat Kohli will play a Test after eight months. He last played a Test match in January 2024. India played many Test matches after this. Virat Kohli remained away from the team during this time due to personal reasons. Due to this, cricket lovers did not get a chance to see Virat’s batting. This deficiency will be overcome in the Test match against Bangladesh starting on September 19. This will be Virat Kohli’s first Test match in India after about one and a half years. He played his last Test match in India against Australia in March 2023.

Virat Kohli is not only the best batsman of the current era but also the best batsman of the world. He has played 113 test matches so far. Kohli has scored 8848 runs in these matches at an average of 49.15, which includes 29 centuries. Don Bradman, who is considered the greatest batsman in cricket history, also has 29 centuries to his name. This means that if Virat Kohli scores even one century, he will surpass Don Bradman.

Among the current cricketers, there are only three batsmen who have scored more centuries than Virat Kohli. These three batsmen are Joe Root, Kane Williamson and Steve Smith. England’s Joe Root, New Zealand’s Kane Williamson and Australia’s Steve Smith have scored 32 Test centuries each. Talking about the overall record, Sachin Tendulkar has the most centuries in Test cricket. Sachin Tendulkar has scored 51 Test centuries.
