Virat Kohli remains the only Indian batsman to hit four hundreds in a Test series against Australia – in their home ground in 2014-15.
Kohli, with 692 runs and an average of 86.50, was the second batsman in Test annals to post two hundred as a captaincy debut. Virat is the only captain to register two centuries in a Test match against Australia in the match. Kohli scored 256 runs in the 2014 Adelaide Test – the most by any batsman on his captaincy debut.
