On October 13, Indian cricket superstar Virat Kohli was spotted at the Mumbai airport, ready to take off for Bengaluru. He is set to lead the charge as India faces New Zealand in the first Test match, starting on October 16 at the iconic M Chinnaswamy Stadium. The excitement surrounding the series is palpable, with fans eager to see how Kohli performs after his recent matches.

This series against New Zealand includes three Test matches. Following the opener in Bengaluru, the second Test will take place in Pune from October 24 to 28, and the final match will return to Mumbai, starting on November 1. Kohli’s journey is a crucial one, as he aims to guide his team to victory in front of passionate home crowds.

Virat Kohli's Recent Form Vs Bangladesh

Virat Kohli's last performance was during a two-match Test series against Bangladesh, where he faced some ups and downs. In the first Test, he struggled, scoring just 6 and 17 in his two innings. However, he made a strong comeback in the second Test, impressively scoring 47 runs off just 35 balls in the first innings and finishing unbeaten with 29 runs in the second. His efforts helped India secure a clean sweep over Bangladesh.


Virat Kohli To Reach 9000-Run Mark In Test

Kohli has already achieved remarkable feats in his Test career, amassing 8,947 runs across 115 matches with an average of 48.89. With 30 half-centuries and 29 centuries under his belt, he is now just 53 runs away from becoming only the fourth Indian player to reach the coveted 9,000-run mark in Test cricket. 

Once the Test series against New Zealand wraps up, India will shift focus to their tour of Australia. The Border-Gavaskar Trophy 2024 will commence on November 22, marking the beginning of another high-stakes challenge for the Men in Blue. With Kohli’s form and experience, India hopes to carry forward their momentum from the home series into Australian soil.
