IND vs ENG 3rd Test: Kohli could surpass Dhoni, Rohit Sharma 25 away from milestone - records to be scripted at Motera

Skipper Virat Kohli had equalled MS Dhoni's feat to become India's most successful Test skipper at home. However, if he wins the pink-ball Test, he could surpass the former Indian captain. 

The two are presently tied at the top with 21 wins, although for Kohli, he managed it in 28 appearances as Test captain with an astounding win-loss ratio of 10.5 while Dhoni's 21 wins came in 30 appearances. 

Kohli had earlier surpassed Dhoni's record to become India's most successful skipper away from home as well. This was after India's 2-0 clean sweep against West Indies in 2019. 

Kohli has the most wins by any Indian captain in Test with 34 victories in 58 games with a win-loss ratio of 2.428. 

He overall stands fifth with his tally of 34 wins after Steve Smith (53 wins in 109 matches), Ricky Ponting (48 wins in 77 matches), Steve Waugh (41 wins in 57 matches), and Clive Llyod (36 wins in 74 Tests). 

Not just surpassing MS Dhoni's record, Kohli could reach the 7,500 Test runs mark. He has amassed 7,463 runs in Tests at 52.92. He needs 37 more runs to register this feat in Tests. 

With this tally, Kohli can become only the sixth Indian batsman to achieve this feat. 

Kohli, who has 27 career Test tons also needs one century to equal the likes of Hashim Amla and Michael Clarke (28 each).

Indian spinner R Ashwin has taken 394 career Test scalps and is six wickets away to register the 400-wicket mark. Ashwin will become only the 16th bowler to claim 400-plus wickets in Tests.

Ashwin can also become just the fourth Indian bowler to take 400-plus scalps. He can also get past Nathan Lyon (399) in terms of Test scalps.

Indian opener Rohit Sharma is just 25 away from amassing 2,500 runs in Test. He has accumulated 2,475 career Test runs at an average of 45.83. 

Notably, the Hitman needs 32 runs to get past Anil Kumble's tally (2,506).

Ishant Sharma (302) can cross Zaheer Khan's tally of 311 Test scalps. He can also get past several other former stars such as Brett Lee (310) and Morne Morkel (309).

As for veteran England pacer James Anderson (611), he is nine wickets away from going past Anil Kumble's tally of 619. Anderson can become the third-highest wicket-taker in Tests.

Stuart Broad (517) is on the verge of surpassing Courtney Walsh (519).

England skipper Joe Root has 20 Test centuries under his belt and he can equal former captain's Andrew Strauss' tally of 21 tons. 

In terms of Test runs, Ben Stokes (4,543) can overcome former England star Herbert Sutcliffe (4,555),
