Long season a chance for Kohli to rewrite Test script

Hindustan Times  

Kolkata: Virat Kohli hasn’t played Test cricket in more than nine months. In the meantime, Kohli has been part of a T20 World Cup winning team, finished top-scorer at the 2023 ODI World Cup and has aggregated his best IPL season since 2016. Now, that didn’t seem to be a problem during 2015-19, when Kohli was on a spree with India winning every Test at home under his captaincy in their surefooted ascent to the top of the ICC rankings. It’s not easy to put a finger on what ailed Kohli back then but given how he has remastered the other formats in this intervening time, there’s no reason to believe Kohli isn’t ready to rewrite the Test script too. As the push for another Test Championship summit clash is set to be given a boost at home, Yashasvi Jaiswal and Shubman Gill will get more opportunities to establish themselves in the top order while Kohli and Sharma prepare for the final leg of their Test career.
