Virat Kohli – 115 & 141 vs Australia
The year 2014 witnessed Virat Kohli’s lowest and supreme phase. Against England, he registered worst average 13.50, in ten innings, of his career. On the other hand, later that year in Australia, he built a new record and scored centuries in consecutive innings.
In the first Test match of the four-match series, the stand-in captain was the highest scorer for India, registering 115 and 141 runs in first and second innings respectively. He would have led the team to gain the lead in the series if Nathan Lyon’s masterpiece has not sent him back to pavilion.
Talking about the series, the host registered the victory by 2-0 as the last two matches were drawn.
