Virat Kohli
The Indian team has not succeeded in winning the Test series in South Africa even once in the history of Test cricket. Team India is currently on the tour of South Africa, where after the end of the 3 T20 and 3 ODI series, they have to play a 2 match Test series against the host team. The Indian team has already been announced in this regard, in which all the senior players will be seen playing. However, everyone’s eyes are going to be on one player, then it is Virat Kohli, who has seen an excellent batting average in South Africa so far in the Test format. At the same time, veteran South African player Jacques Kallis has also given a big statement regarding the upcoming Test series and said that Kohli’s form is very important.
Kohli will play a very important role
South Africa team’s veteran player Jacques Kallis, while talking on Star Sports regarding the Test series, said in his statement that Virat Kohli is a big player and no matter where he is playing. He also has experience of playing in Africa. He can share it with the young players in the team. He knows the situation here much better. I hope that he would like to perform better in this series and his form so far this year has been very good. I think if India has to win its first Test series in South Africa, Kohli will have to play a big role.
This has been Kohli’s performance in Africa so far
If we look at Virat Kohli’s performance in South Africa in Test format, he has scored 719 runs in 14 innings of 7 matches at an average of 51.36. During this period, 2 century and 3 half-century innings have been seen from his bat. If we talk about Kohli’s form in international cricket this year, he has scored 557 runs in 7 matches at an average of 55.70, which includes 2 centuries and 1 half-century. Apart from this, in ODIs, Kohli has scored 1377 runs in 27 matches at an average of 72.47. During this period he has played six centuries and 8 half-centuries.
