#2 Virat Kohli scored more runs in the first innings of the Test match than the entire Test series in 2014

<p>

Virat Kohli is arguably the greatest batsman of this generation. The lad from Delhi has scored runs all over the world. The only country where Virat had a poor record was England. Virat, before this series, had an average of 13 in English conditions. But the tables turned as this series kicked off, 3 days ago. Kohli was the highest scorer of the match as he scored 149 runs in the first inning and a fighting 51 in the second inning.

It took just 5 hours for him to surpass the horrific amount of runs that he scored in all the 10 innings of the 2014 Test series. Kohli scored 134 runs in 5 matches in the disastrous 2014 series while in this series, he managed to score 13 more runs in the first inning of the tour itself.
