Kohli got to the 6000-run mark on Friday
It may not have been a century for Virat Kohli in the first innings of the Ageas Bowl Test, but during the course of that innings, the Indian skipper became the second fastest from his country to get to the mark of 6000 Test runs.
The right-hander reached it in 119 innings, only two more than Sunil Gavaskar, who got there in 117 innings.
