In the first 10 years of Test cricket, nobody has amassed as many centuries as Kohli did.
Since making his Test debut against the West Indies in 2011, Virat Kohli has gone a long way as a cricketer. In the first encounter, the Delhi lad had a poor performance, scoring only 19 runs. Kohli is ready to play his 100th Test match in Mohali on March 4 after a decade-long journey.
Kohli has scored 7962 runs at a brilliant average of 50.39 in 99 Test matches. Kohli captained India in 68 Tests, winning 40 of them. He has a 58.82 percent overall win percentage.
