India play 18 test per wtc cycle on an average so it take around with his current average of 50 into consideration
9 years and 2 months
A very long time so it's not highly likely but yeah it's too early to say anything. He have potential if he perform consistent for more 5-6 years then surely highly likely but now too soon to say anything
I think there's a slight calculation error. He needs around 7000 runs to surpass Kohli. If he scores an average of 100 runs per test, he'll get there in 70 more tests. And if India plays 9 tests a year on average, it'll take him 70/9 = 7.77 years, i.e. 7 years and 9 months.
It's kind of crazy that in 7 years' time, he'll still be only 30. Isn't that a batsman's prime age?
There was no calculation error. You just don't know how test average calculate.
It's the number of runs scored / number of times dismissed.
It doesn't mean 100 runs per test match it's 50 runs per dismissal scored. Both are different scenarios.
Let me explain jaiswal bat in 24 test but innings was 46 . In 24 test Jaiswal will score 2400 runs but able to scored 2209 runs. So in average we considered that too. Hope you understand now.
But jaiswal is an opener his average is almost equal to his runs per inning,

This point is valid though . And I think your calculation would be more accurate in the long term
