Virat Kohli Record in Border Gavaskar Trophy: India vs Australia Test series i.e. Border Gavaskar Trophy is once again near. Strategy is being discussed between both camps. Also, discussions are going on about the playing eleven. Captain Rohit Sharma will not be there in the first match of the series, so the responsibility of taking the team across will be more on Virat Kohli. He is the most senior player on the team. In such a situation, if Kohli’s bat works, he will not only destroy the Australian attack but the rest of the team will also be inspired to perform better. 

These players have scored more than 2 thousand runs in the Border Gavaskar series. 

In the Border Gavaskar series, not only Indian but also Australian fans and players will be keeping an eye on Virat Kohli. Kohli has a chance to do something in this series that will put his name on the list of those great Indian players who have achieved this feat. This includes the names of Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, and VVS Laxman. 

The Border Gavaskar series was played for the first time in the year 1996 

The Border Gavaskar Trophy was started in the year 1996. Since then, only three players from India have been able to score more than 2000 runs. Sachin Tendulkar’s name comes first in this. He has scored 3262 runs by playing 34 matches in the Border Gavaskar series. Talking about VVS Laxman, he has scored 2434 runs by playing 29 matches. Rahul Dravid has scored 2143 runs by playing 32 matches in the Border Gavaskar series. 

Virat Kohli needs 21 runs. 

Virat Kohli has so far managed to score 1979 runs in 24 matches in the Border Gavaskar series. If he scores 21 more runs, he will also become the first Indian batsman to score 2000 runs. However, not only these runs but a big innings will be expected from Kohli so that Team India can move towards victory. Kohli’s average in the Border Gavaskar series is 48.26. He scores runs at a strike rate of 52.25. He has scored 8 centuries and 5 half-centuries so far in this. It remains to be seen how Virat Kohli will perform in the first Test to be held in Perth.
