Virat Kohli is surely the greatest batsmen of this era across all formats. India is ranking 1st in test matches and holds 2nd in both ODI and T20I at the ICC team rank. His steady run-scoring ability has made him earned a nickname of the run machine. The way he is batting at the point of time no prior record created by other international batsmen seems to be safe. He has been on a rampage against best of the bowlers. Think how all of the fantasy cricket games users will want him on their teams.

There are some records, which this Indian skipper will have to break in his career that could debatably make him the best Test batsmen ever. Read them over before you start making your next online fantasy cricket team.

Quadruple century by Brian Lara

Brian Lara is unquestionably one of the greatest batsmen in cricket history. He was known for his potential to amass enormous score in a single inning. He shattered Sir Garfield Sober’s record when he scored 375 at Antigua in 1994. And at the same ground, he scored test history’s 1st ever quadruple century. He has a count of 9 double centuries, 2 triple centuries, 1 quadruple century against his name.

Virat Kohli has learned the art of playing big innings and it may seem simple for him to exceed Lara’s tally of the 200s and 300s, but his actual test will be to go across the 400 runs mark that has continued to be undamaged for even more than a decade.

51 Centuries of Sachin Tendulkar

Sachin Tendulkar – the man whose name is identified with records. Each time a record is shattered whether its ODIs or Tests, his name will show up on the screen. He stands atop the list of greatest run-getters and highest century makers. He has scored 51 Test hundreds in his whole life.

The manner Kohli is batting right now, he is creating centuries after centuries in every single innings that he plays. He has 24 Test hundrends in 73 Tests and it will be likely to break his idol’s record if he continues to rule world cricket in the exact manner. Even if Kohli plays an additional 70 Test matches, it will be anticipated of him to make another 27 hundreds.

It may be hard for him to play the same figure of matches that Sachin played, but Virat’s run-scoring potential lies in his consistency and he has been doing it for half a decade right now. It may be hard to have a preconceived idea of him carrying on the same form for the next five years or so, but the Delhi lad usually seems to be up for the dare thrown at him.

Sir Don Bradman’s records of 200s and 300s

He is often mentioned as the greatest batsman this planet has seen. Sir Don Bradman’s Test average is a standard for the scorecard. He made 6994 runs at 99.94 average. And that is incredible!

However, there are two records of Sir Don that recent Indian captain Virat Kohli can exceed. Virat Kohli has 6 double centuries to his name at the instant, however he has still got 7-8 years ahead of him and even if he carries on his run-scoring spree in the next 3-4 years, without doubt he will break Sir Don’s record of 12 double centuries.

Although Virat Kohli hasn’t been able to score a triple century in his career for any format still, it is not too far that he might replace one of his doubles into a triple century. In his present form, he has the potential to break Sir Don’s record of triple century.

As ardent cricket and daily fantasy cricket fans, we are also waiting for these incredible moments to occur soon, so that along with Kohli we can take part at the celebration in the international cricket.
