#2 Most runs in ODI cricket
Give Kohli a cricket bat and he will score runs for you till eternity. Such is the hunger for runs that he never gets bored. Running hard between the wickets, converting ones into twos and twos into threes are the ingredients of his batting.
He goes about his batting so nonchalantly that the strike rate is around 100 every time without him playing any high-risk shots. And this has been the case for a consistent 8-9 years now. He is, without a doubt, the most consistent batsman in world cricket.
To put things in perspective, Kohli breached the 10,000 ODI runs mark in 205 innings bettering the record of Sachin Tendulkar (259 innings) by 54 innings.
Giving his appetite for runs and his unmatched consistency, the Little Master's mountain of 18,426 ODI runs looks set to be scaled.
