After missing the Johannesburg Test due to upper-back spasms, Test captain Virat is expected to return to India Playing XI for the third and final Test against South Africa in Cape Town.

On his return, Kohli would be chasing a personal milestone as he is just 14 runs away from current head coach Rahul Dravid's 624 runs, to become the second-highest run-scorer for India in the Rainbow Nation. India legend Sachin Tendulkar has the most 1161 runs from 15 Tests with an average of 46.44 in South Africa.

Kohli has scored 611 runs with an impressive average of 50 in South Africa so far. In the first Test, Kohli made a solid start but failed to convert his innings into a big one.
