Virat Kohli‘s poor run of form continued after he failed to impress on his return to red-ball cricket. The veteran batter scored just 23 runs in two innings of the first Test match against Bangladesh in Chennai but managed to register a huge milestone during the second innings.
The 35-year-old Kohli broke Sachin Tendulkar another record as he became the fastest cricketer to reach 12,000 runs at home in international cricket. Kohli took only 243 innings, 24 less than the former captain, to reach this historic milestone on Friday.
