Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: D
Explanation

Virat Kohli holds several significant records in Test cricket. He is the only captain in world cricket to have scored seven double centuries. As an Indian captain, he has scored the most centuries (20), surpassing MS Dhoni's previous records. In 2014, during the Adelaide Test against Australia, Kohli became the first Indian captain to score twin centuries (115 and 141) on his captaincy debut. Furthermore, his seven double centuries are the most by any Indian batsman in Test history, placing him ahead of legends like Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag. These achievements highlight his dominance as both a batsman and a leader in the longest format of the game. Consequently, all four statements provided in the question are factually correct.
