In the grand tapestry of cricket, where legends are woven from the threads of talent, determination, and sheer will, Virat Kohli stands as a monumental figure. His journey in Test cricket, from a promising debutant to a global icon, isn’t just a tale of runs scored or centuries made; it’s a saga of a man who redefined what it means to be a cricketing maestro. Let’s delve into the year-wise average of Virat Kohli in Test cricket since his debut, a journey that mirrors not just his growth as a player, but as a phenomenon in the sport.

Here’s how the man, the myth, the Virat Kohli, has fared year by year in the longest format:

2011: The Debut Year – Kohli steps onto the Test stage like a young Padawan entering the Jedi Council. His average? A respectable 54.08. Not bad for a rookie, but then again, this is Kohli we’re talking about. He’s not here to just play; he’s here to dominate.

2012-2014: The Rise of the Run Machine – Kohli’s average dances around the 50s, with peaks in 2013 at 54.08 in Australia. Imagine a space where runs are currency; Kohli’s been printing money.

2015-2017: The Kohli Era – Here’s where things get interesting. Kohli’s not just playing cricket; he’s rewriting the script. His average in these years? Hovering in the high 40s to low 50s, but with the intensity of a supernova. In South Africa, he’s averaging over 40, which, in cricket terms, is like saying he’s breathing fire.

2018-2020: The Peak of Kohli – This is where Kohli’s average starts to look like a phone number you’d want to remember. His 2018 series in South Africa? 47.67. But remember, this isn’t just about numbers; it’s about the sheer will to dominate, like a chess grandmaster playing against beginners.

2021-2023: The Comeback – After a dip, which in Kohli’s terms means not scoring a century in every match, he’s back with a vengeance. His average in 2023? A solid 59.77 with two centuries. This isn’t just a comeback; it’s a declaration that Virat Kohli is not done yet.

Virat Kohli’s journey in Test cricket isn’t just about numbers; it’s a narrative of resilience, ambition, and sheer cricketing brilliance. From a debutant to a legend, Kohli’s year-wise average tells a story of a man who plays cricket not just for runs, but for the love of the game, the thrill of the chase, and the legacy he’s building. Here’s to Kohli, the time traveler of cricket, where every year is a new adventure in the vast universe of cricketing glory.
