Virat Kohli is yet to get to a big score in the ongoing Test series against Bangladesh. He came into the longest format on the back of a century, which he scored in the final ODI. The hundred had helped Kohli surpass Ricky Ponting and become the only second batter to hit a total of 72 international centuries. India legend Sachin Tendulkar tops the list with 100 international tons to his name.
Talking about Rishabh Pant, the southpaw had scored a 45-ball 46 in the first innings of the first Test against Bangladesh, while he didn't get a chance to bat in the second innings.
On the other hand, Kuldeep Yadav had returned figures of 8 for 113 in the first game, including a five-for in the first innings. However, he was dropped for the second Test in Mirpur
