Senior India batter Virat Kohli completed 12,000 runs in international cricket at home. Kohli became the second player, only behind Sachin Tendulkar to achieve this feat.

With a lead of 227 runs, India ended second at 81 for 3 with Shubman Gill (33 batting) and Rishabh Pant (12 batting) at the crease. The rest of the six Bangladesh wickets were equally shared by rookie Akash Deep (2/19), seasoned Ravindra Jadeja (2/19) and Mohammed Siraj (2/30).

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.

Rohit Sharma sitting in the dugout expressed his anger while umpire Kettleborough was seen smirking after the replays were shown. Fans took to X (formerly known as Twitter) to express their frustration, questioning why he didn’t opt for the review if he had any doubts.

Virat Kohli led the way with the applause for R Ashwin after his fantastic 113 against Bangladesh in the Chennai Test. The whole of Chepauk also gave Ashwin a standing ovation on Day 2 after he got out.
