Kohli, who has played 99 tests so far, is expected to reach the milestone during the Mohali Test, starting March 4.

Earlier, the first match of the series was scheduled to take place at M Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru, which is also a home ground for Kohli's IPL franchise Royal Challengers Bangalore.

Kohli is set to become India's 12th cricketer to play 100 Test matches. Sachin Tendulkar has played most 200 Test matches for India followed by the current head coach Rahul Dravid, who played 163 games.

The 33-year-old has accumulated 7962 runs in 168 Test innings at an average of 50.39, including 27 hundreds and 28 fifties.
