IND vs BAN Second Test: A Look at India's Legacy and Kohli's & Rohit's Records

As the IND vs BAN second Test approaches in Kanpur, it's worth examining the performances of Team India and its renowned players, Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, at Green Park Stadium.

In the ongoing two-Test series, Rohit Sharma & Co. took a commanding 1-0 lead after winning the first Test in Chennai by 280 runs. The second Test is set to begin on Friday, September 27, at the historic Green Park Stadium.

This second Test match holds significant importance for India in the ICC World Test Championship 2023-25, as a 2-0 series victory would reinforce their position at the top of the WTC Points Table.

Looking at the records at Kanpur's Green Park Stadium, Rohit Sharma has made an impressive mark, scoring two centuries in his 5 appearances, which include 4 ODIs and 1 Test. Across these matches, he has accumulated a total of 432 runs. In the only Test he played at this venue in 2016, Rohit scored 35 runs in the first innings and improved to 68 in the second.

Virat Kohli has also made his presence felt at Green Park, recording a century during his time there. The former Indian captain has played 4 ODIs and 1 Test match in Kanpur, amassing a total of 199 runs. In his Test match against New Zealand at the same ground in 2016, Kohli had modest scores of 9 runs in the first innings and 18 in the second.

Team India has a rich history at Green Park Stadium, having contested Test cricket there since 1952. Over 23 Test matches, India has achieved 7 wins, suffered 3 losses, and drawn 13 matches. Notably, since 2010, they have played only 2 Tests (both against New Zealand) at this venue, winning the match in 2016 and drawing the one in 2021.
