Kohli double ton

-

Cricket: Virat Kohli made history by scoring his maiden test double century as India played their way into a virtually unbeatable position on the second day of the first test against West Indies in Antigua yesterday. Captain Kohli became the first Indian to post a test double century overseas, scoring 200 out of 566 for eight declared. Kohli shared a 168-run stand for the fifth wicket with Ravichandr­an Ashwin (113) who was dropped on 43 by keeper Shane Dowrich and made the West Indies pay by compiling a century. West Indies were 31-1 in their first innings at the close of play.
