Virat Kohli’s bat got ‘rusted’, Williamson-Root-Smith scored centuries

Fab Four Test Hundred: Virat Kohli had scored a brilliant century in the first match of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy played in Perth. After a long time, Kohli had scored a century, after which the fans were hoping that Kohli’s form had returned and now good innings would be seen from his bat continuously, but it did not happen. In Test cricket, Kohli’s bat seems to be ‘rusted’, while Joe Root, Steve Smith and Kane Williamson, who come with him in the Fab-4, have scored a lot of centuries.

Since 2021, Kohli has scored only three centuries in Test cricket, while other batsmen scored a lot of centuries in this period. Joe Root remained at the top in terms of scoring most centuries in this period. While Kohli scored 3 centuries, Root scored 19 centuries. Apart from this, many Test centuries have also been scored with the bat of Kane Williamson and Joe Root.
