7 survivors from the last India-New Zealand ODI series played in India

Many faces from the previous India-New Zealand series will not be seen this time

#1 Virat Kohli

Kohli had already started his journey towards becoming an ODI great

Arguably the best limited-overs batsman in the world, Virat Kohli is carving a legacy of his own in the 50-over format of the game. When New Zealand toured India in the 2010/11 season, the Delhi cricketer had already shown the cricketing world enough signs of his impending greatness.

Kohli emerged as the 2nd highest run-getter in the series behind stand-in skipper Gautam Gambhir with 234 runs in 5 innings at an impressive average of nearly 60. His finest performance of the series came in the 1st ODI as his innings of 105 set the tone for a 40-run Indian victory.

While everyone knew back then that Virat Kohli would go on to do great things in the future, no one would have imagined that his success would reach such heights.
