    Records Virat Kohli can break in Test series versus England
  • After heading back from Australia on paternity leave, India's regular captain Virat Kohli will return to action in the upcoming Test series against England.

    He was recently named in Team India's 18-member squad for the four-Test series, starting February 5.

    The Indian skipper has an opportunity to break plenty of records in Test cricket.

    We take a look at the same.

  • Kohli is already India's most successful captain in Test cricket.

    So far, he has led India in 56 matches, having won 33 and lost 13 (drawn 10).

    He broke former Indian captain MS Dhoni's record of winning 27 Tests as captain in 2019.

    In the impending series, Kohli can also emulate Dhoni's record of leading India in most number of Tests (60).

    He also has 41 international tons to his name, joint-most with the legendary Ricky Ponting.

    With a 42nd hundred, Kohli can completely own this record.

    Meanwhile, in Test cricket, he has 20 centuries as captain, second after Graeme Smith (25).

    Some of them are Ross Taylor (7,379), David Boon (7,422), Clive Lloyd (7,515) and Mohammad Yousuf (7,530).

    If Kohli plays all the four Tests, he could eclipse Dhoni in terms of matches played (90).
