The first match of the 4-match Test series of the latest season of Border Gavaskar Trophy between India and Australia will be played from February 9 to February 13 at the Vidarbha Cricket Association Stadium in Nagpur. 8 innings of 4 matches will provide a great opportunity for India’s great batsman Virat Kohli to set new examples.
* IND vs AUS Border Gavaskar Test Series, Virat Kohli will complete 25 thousand runs in international cricket as soon as he scores 64 runs in 2023. At present, he has 24936 international runs in his account.
* In this latest series of Border-Gavaskar Test Series AUS vs IND, 2023, Virat Kohli has a chance to break Sachin Tendulkar’s ‘Virat’-record.

Whereas, Virat Kohli has scored 7 centuries in just 36 innings in this tournament. If he gets 3 centuries from his bat in 8 innings of this latest 4-match series, Sachin Tendulkar’s record will be broken and Virat Kohli’s ‘Viraat-form’ will emerge in Test cricket.
