5 batsmen who can become the leading run-scorer in 2019 World Cup

#1 Virat Kohli

Kohli is among the greatest ever batsmen to play ODI cricket

Words aren't enough to describe the level of consistency Virat Kohli has maintained. Year after year, he keeps on churning out runs for his country. Before 2018, he was part of the 'Fab Four' group comprising Kane Williamson, Steve Smith, and Joe Root. But his performances last year have elevated Kohli to a completely different level.

Kohli's captaincy has had an extremely positive impact on the team and the confidence he carries has rubbed off on every player. He, along with Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan, form a magnificent top-order which can win matches on their own.

Having already tasted World Cup success as player in 2011, India will be hoping that Kohli becomes the third Indian captain to lift the coveted trophy.
