5 records Virat Kohli can break before 2018

#4 Fastest Indian to reach 7,000 test runs

Virat Kohli has scored 6098 Test runs in his career. He has 6 Test matches to play in 2018, obviously considering the fact that he stays fit throughout the year. Given that 2 Test matches will be played against West Indies on Indian pitches and 3 against Australia in conditions where Kohli has performed exceedingly well in the past, it won’t be a surprise if he reaches the 7000 runs mark in this calendar year.

Virender Sehwag has the record for fastest Indian to 7000 Test runs by scoring them in 134 innings. Kohli currently has played 120 innings. So the equation is pretty simple, 902 runs in 13 innings.
