Virat Kohli is often known as a chase-master. He owns all possible records in ODI chases. When it comes to most centuries while batting second, Sachin Tendulkar has 39 tons against his name. He also sits at the top in the all-time list.

The current Indian captain is just a century away to equal the little master's record, and two centuries to break the all-time numbers. Virat Kohli's conversation rate has been phenomenal in recent times.

He has a bright chance to own this record by end of this new year, thanks to his prolific record in ODI chases which makes it easy for Kohli to be in this position.

He is miles ahead for most ODI centuries when batting second, with 23 centuries and Sachin placed at second with 17 centuries.

Most international 100s when batting second:

39 - Sachin Tendulkar

38 - Virat Kohli

26 - Ricky Ponting

25 - Mahela Jayawardene

25 - Brian Lara
