Virat Kohli, the star Indian cricket player, is expected to become the country’s highest run scorer in Test matches at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, thus all eyes will be on him. Kohli will have the chance since India is ready to play the fourth Test in the current Border-Gavaskar Trophy at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) starting on December 26.
This record is now held by the great Sachin Tendulkar, who scored 449 runs in five Test matches. He has an average of 44.90 and a strike rate of 58.69, respectively.
Right now, Kohli is ranked third on that chart. In three Test matches, he has amassed 316 runs with a highest score of 169. The number two spot goes to Ajinkya Rahane, who is not playing in the current series. With a total of 369 runs in the three games he has played there, he has scored two tonnes.
Top run-scorers for India in Tests at MCG:
| Player | Tests at MCG | Runs Scored |
| Sachin Tendulkar | 5 | 449 |
| Ajinkya Rahane | 3 | 369 |
| Virat Kohli | 3 | 316 |
| Virender Sehwag | 2 | 280 |
| Rahul Dravid | 4 | 263 |
Virat Kohli seeks consistency as series heads into business end
Kohli has had trouble with the bat in this round of the BGT and has been speaking in a general tone. He has only scored 26 runs in the first four innings of the first Test, aside from his century in the second innings.
Kohli has been spotted chasing deliveries deep beyond the off-stump line on multiple occasions. Right now, the series is knotted at 1-1. It is expected that Kohli’s success with the bat will have a significant impact on how the series turns out. India is now attempting to win their third straight Test series in Australia and compete in their third World Test Championship in a row.
