Brad Hogg Questions Kohli's Record Chances

Former Australian spinner Brad Hogg has expressed skepticism about Virat Kohli's chances of surpassing Sachin Tendulkar's record of 15,921 Test runs, citing Kohli's prolonged slump in form. Currently, Kohli has 8,871 runs in 114 Tests, and Hogg believes he must significantly improve over the next 10 matches to remain relevant in this race. In contrast, Hogg is optimistic about England's Joe Root, who has shown impressive consistency and currently stands at 12,000 runs from 146 Tests, making him a strong contender to challenge Tendulkar's record. Root's recent performances have been stellar, accumulating 4,579 runs in 49 Tests since 2021, which includes 17 centuries. As Kohli struggles, Root's form and potential suggest he is the player to watch regarding this historic milestone. Kohli's upcoming matches against Bangladesh and New Zealand will be critical for his chances to regain momentum.
