He performed his test against the West Indian Islands in June 2011. Although the first test tour was a great disappointment with only 76 runs in five Inning, a young virate made a name for him with serious, counter -attack strokes in the coming days. As a test player, the rise began in 213 balls in 2012 with a hymen against Australia in Adelaide in 2012. In a tour where no one else could touch 300 runs for India, and the giants such as Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid, Vvs Laxman and Virender Sehwag, including one century and fifty, 300 runs in four tests, looking at a shadow of the dominant selves for India. Between 2011-2015, he carried out 2,994 runs in 41 tests at 44.03, and 72 innings in 11 centuries and 12 fifty.
Between 2016 and 2019, Virat had one of the most powerful stroke premiums so far for a test cricket, and 4,208 runs in 43 tests in an average of 66.79, 69 inning 16 centuries and 10 fifty and best 254*score. This included seven couples by a captain in the history of most tests.
However, the 2020s were not great for the superstar dough, in 39 tests, an average of 30.72 in 2.028 runs will be shown in only three centuries and 69 innings of nine -fifty. Their numbers received a support from 2023, where an average of 55.91 runs 671 running in eight tests, two -centuries and two -handed 12 strokes.
Throughout this time period, virate fought some important weaknesses against delivery and spinists outside the stump line, especially outside the stump line.
Last year, it ended with only 382 runs in 10 tests with a shocking an average of 22.47, only one century and fifty 19 inning. The post-test trip was Border-Gavaskar Trophy Tour to Australia from November-January, where it only made 190 runs in nine to nine inning with an average of 23.75 and the Perth of the century was emphasized. That century was the first century in which he hit a ton against the West Indian Islands in the Port of Spain in 2023. He also opposed Australia at the beginning of 2023 during the Border-Gavascar Cup in Ahmedabad at the house of the last century.
