5 bowlers who have got Virat Kohli out most number of times in ODIs

#2 Tim Southee (5 times in 15 innings)

The rivalry between Southee and Kohli goes back to their under-19 days. The two have been engaged in various amazing battles throughout.

Tim Southee is one of the leading fast bowlers of the New Zealand attack. The Kiwi is well known for his outswing with the new ball. In addition to this, he has got various variations up his sleeves to go along with his viscous yorkers, which make him an equally effective death bowler.

In the 15 innings Virat has batted against Tim Southee, the Kiwi quick has managed to come out on top on 5 ocassions. Interestingly, Southee has got Kohli out caught on all the 5 occasions, one of which includes caught behind the stumps.

#1 Ravi Rampaul (6 times in 12 innings)

Virat Kohli and Ravi Rampaul have had a great history together. The two haven't only played against each other on several occasions, but have also played for the same team (RCB in IPL). Fair enough to say that the two know each other very well.

Ravi Rampaul is a completely different type of fast bowler. He hardly gets any movement in the air. He tries to beat people with his fast bowling action, which helps him get some extra zip in his deliveries. Injuries and lack oF consistency have bothered him throughout his career across all formats. He last played an international match in 2015.

Rampaul has been pretty successful against the Indian Captain as he has dismissed the latter 6 times in just 12 innings. The modes of dismissal also tell that Virat has struggled a bit against his former IPL teammate. The 6 dismissals include 3 caught behinds, 2 times caught by fielders and once he managed to go through the defences of Kohli.
