India vs England 2016: India's predicted XI for the second Test

#4 Virat Kohli

The Indian captain played a dogged innings in the closing stages of the first Test, holding fort from one end to ensure that the batting line-up doesn’t crumble like the fifth-day pitch at Rajkot. He has crafted his game marvellously, changing gears with minimal fuss to show the way to the other batsmen.

He’s set to play his 50th Test, a small milestone in what promises to be a great career in the white clothing. Yet, the team will need to make sure that they aren’t over-dependent on their No.4.
