Virat Kohli and Shubman Gill. One is called the king of Indian cricket and the other is being called Prince. Now one thing is common between this king and Prince. Uday has been the same under the captaincy of both. As the Test captain of Team India, Virat Kohli’s debut series passed in 2014. In the same way, his debut test series for Shubman Gill was spent in 2025. Both Virat and Gill have been seen emerging as a leader in their first series in world cricket.
Virat’s graph jumped after debut test series as captain
Virat Kohli played his captaincy debut Test series in the year 2014 on a tour of Australia. Before that series, Virat Kohli’s batting average was not much. Virat’s batting average in the Test was less than 40 of 39.46. But in the Test series played in Australia as captain, he scored so many runs that his batting average became 46.30.
Gill’s batting average also increased after debut test series as captain
After becoming the captain, the way King Virat Kohli emerged in batting, the same story was also of Prince Shubman Gill, who played his first Test series in England as captain. Shubman Gill’s batting average in Tests was 35.05 before the England tour. But, when he gave the first test of his captaincy, passed it, he also saw a bounce in the batting average of his Test career. Shubman Gill’s average batting average is now 41.35 in Test cricket.
