England vs India, 2018: 5 milestone that Indian players could achieve in the Test series

#3 Murali Vijay just an inch away form 4000-run mark

Ever since the transition period hit the Indian team, Murali Vijay, a classical right-handed batsman from Chennai, has wonderfully assumed the role of an opener in the Indian team.

With quick feet to get to the stride of the ball and a fleet understanding of the length, Vijay is an exceptional player of spin. Vijay is also an excellent timer of the ball and tends to cuff the ball with his forearms rather than with a strong bottom-hand. Thus, with strong basics up his sleeves, Vijay will turnout be an important player for India in the upcoming Test series against England.

Murali Vijay is closing into a milestone in Test cricket. Having scored 3907 runs in Test cricket, Vijay needs just 93 runs more to achieve the feat of 4000 Test runs. Garnering these runs, he will become the 16th Indian to accomplish this feat.
