Virat Kohli is currently leading Royal Challengers Bangalore in a must-win situation to make it to playoffs. The Indian icon who amassed 450+ runs this season will be looking to make it big in the coming games.
Scoring a Triple Century in a Test is not on Virat Kohli’s mind at the moment
It is to be noted that Virat Kohli will be leaving England to start his county stint with Surrey from the month of June. Surrey signed a deal with the skipper for a total of six matches and Virat will be trying to make the best of situations to announce his class at the English grounds.
Virat had a poor outing in the India tour of England 2014 and he scored just 134 runs in 5 tests at an average of 13.4. This series raised eyebrows regarding his selection in the longer format of the game. Later he shut the critics with his scintillating centuries at Australian grounds.

This county experience will be of a great help to assess the conditions as this tour is his first one to English soil as a full-time captain. Virat will miss the first T20 game against Ireland due to his county schedule and Rohit is expected to lead the side.
