The Indian cricket molded himself as a working machine after passing thick and thin with blue men. Delhi child, who joined the team as a talented young man, continued to be the legend of the game with his great attitude. Kohli made the first release of India in ODI format in 2008, followed by the T20I output in 2010, but until 2011, he tested for the country. Kohli has become a regular feature on the test side of India since its first release, and in 2011, the fourth test against the West Indian Islands in Wankhede Stadium showed early symptoms of a star. He hit his first test in half a century in the match, and then he became the second in the second inning.

He was behind Steve Waugh (41), Ricky Ponting (48) and Graeme Smith (53) to win more as a test captain.

Under the leadership of Kohli, India won the first Border-Gavaskar Trophy in the 2018–19 series. In addition, during his term of office, India won the victory in 11 home test series.

Kohli as a test captain, 54.80 continued a average of an impressive stroke and 5,864 running. The highest score of the party was a 254 in 2019 against South Africa in Pune.

In general, the 36 -year -old child will peak his test career with 9230 running in an average of 46.85 and 123 matches with an average of 30 centuries and 31 centuries.
