The second Test between India and West Indies will be Virat Kohli's 500th international match.
This will be a huge landmark match for Virat Kohli as it will be the 500th international match for the batter. Kohli, who made his Test debut 12 years ago against the same opponents in 2011, will become only the fourth Indian cricketer after Sachin Tendulkar, Rahul Dravid and MS Dhoni to achieve this landmark.
Dismissed for 76 in the first Test at Dominica, Kohli could reattain his Test average of 50 if he is able to knock off at least 345 runs across both innings.
As the two teams practiced at the Queen’s Park Oval, Kohli was greeted by legend Lara when the Indian star was returning to the pavilion.
The West Indies legend was on his phone talking to someone, but the moment he saw Kohli approaching him, Lara reached his arm out to Virat and shook hands with him. The two then embraced each other before engaging in a small chat even as Lara held his phone over his left ear.
After a couple of 'thumbs up' gestures, Kohli headed upstairs while Lara got back to his device.
