As Virat Kohli guns from glory in India's relatively long Test season ahead, he will have a point to prove to himself more than anybody else.

The star Indian cricketer Virat Kohli scored a mammoth 12,000 runs figure on home soil during the first Test against Bangladesh at MA Chidambaram Stadium, Chennai on Friday.

India in recent times have cooked some serious numbers away from home, especially in the longer format of the game. Apart from India’s phenomenal show of resilience from the batters, their fast-bowling trio of Mohammed Shami, Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Siraj have played an instrumental role in shaping up India’s trio on the road.

The two-match Test series between India and Bangladesh is about to commence, with the first match scheduled for September 19. Indian batsman Virat Kohli is on the verge of achieving a significant milestone in this series.

Virat Kohli's return to the India Test side is off to the worst possible start as he was dismissed for just 6 runs in the first innings of the Chennai Test.

As the Indian cricket team starts its first Test match against Bangladesh in Chennai.  The BAN have won the toss and have elected to bowl first. This displays that Virat Kohli will start fresh on the pitch as he returns to serve glory to the nation under new head coach Gautam Gambhir .
