But not only alone, but also with Rohit Sharma, Kohli can make another achievement in his name. Kohli and Rohit may not open, but both the pairs have scored runs. If the two put together a partnership of at least 94 runs in this series, then they will become only the third pair of India to share a partnership of more than 5000 runs. Both currently have 4906 runs in 81 innings, with 18 centuries and 15 half-century partnerships. He averages 64.55 and has the highest partnership of 246 runs. (Photo: File)
