Ben Stokes sentences Virat Kohli to two embarrassing records

Virat Kohli's rough patch continued with the bat as he was dismissed for a duck in the first innings of the India vs England 4th Test by Ben Stokes. As a result of the duck, Kohli registered some embarrassing records as he joined Sourav Ganguly as the Indian captain with the most ducks in international cricket (13). Moreover, Kohli also matched MS Dhoni for the tally of most ducks as an Indian captain in Test cricket (8). However, the embarrassment does not stop there for the skipper as he also registered the joint-most ducks by an Indian in the ongoing World Test Championship alongside Jasprit Bumrah (4).

India are currently at a score of 294/7 with the pair of Washington Sundar and Axar Patel currently batting on 60 and 11 respectively.
