Known for his intense dedication, unmatched skill, and fierce competitive spirit, Kohli has etched his name in the annals of cricketing history as one of the game’s greatest all-format players.

A Record-Breaking Career

With over 25,000 runs across all formats, Kohli is one of the select few players to achieve this milestone, joining the ranks of cricketing legends. His 76 international centuries, spanning Test, ODI, and T20 formats, set him apart as a prolific scorer who consistently performs on the world stage.

With 26 centuries while chasing in ODIs, his ability to steer India to victory under challenging conditions has often drawn comparisons to some of the greatest finishers in cricket. Kohli's unique approach to pacing innings, focusing on singles and doubles while saving his attacking shots for the right moments, has set a new standard for modern chasers.

Aggressive Leadership and an Unmatched Win Record

As captain, Kohli led India to memorable victories, particularly in Test cricket. Under his leadership, India became the first Asian team to win a Test series in Australia, achieving this historic feat in 2018-19. Kohli's aggressive style as a captain injected a fearless mentality into the Indian team, making them a formidable force on foreign soil.
