Kohli is now level with Azharuddin for most Test centuries overseas (5) as Indian skipper

At 27 years and 259 days, Virat Kohli became the youngest Test skipper to score a double century in the West Indies beating the previous record held by former West Indies skipper Denis Atkinson who was 28 years and 278 days old when he scored 219 against the visiting Australian side at Bridgetown in May 1955.

Kohli is also the third overseas skipper to score a double century in the Carribean joining England's Len Hutton and Australia's Bobby Simpson.

Kohli now has five Test centuries as skipper in Tests overseas which puts him level with Mohammad Azharuddin who also has the same number but from a vastly higher number of matches in comparison to Kohli.
