Virat Kohli can surpass Don Bradman's record
Indian cricket team's batting legend Virat Kohli currently has 29 Test tons, matching the legendary Don Bradman's tally.

Virat Kohli 152 runs away from reaching 9,000 runs in Test cricket
Virat Kohli is just 152 runs away from reaching 9,000 runs in Test cricket. Based on his current form, it's likely he will achieve this milestone during India vs Bangladesh Test series. If Kohli reaches this mark, he will also surpass former England cricketer Graham Gooch's total of 8,900 Test runs.
Virat Kohli yet to score a fifty against Bangladesh
It may seem surprising, but despite having 30 half-centuries in Test cricket, Virat Kohli has yet to score a fifty against Bangladesh in his 9 Test innings against them. He will have the chance to score his maiden Test fifty against Bangladesh in IND vs BAN Test series 2024.
Virat Kohli can overtake Cheteshwar Pujara's record
Virat Kohli is just 32 runs away from surpassing Cheteshwar Pujara in list of Indian batters with most runs in IND vs BAN Tests. If he scores these runs in India vs Bangladesh Test series, he will exceed Pujara's total of 468 runs against Bangladesh.
