Kohli is the only Indian batsman to score three consecutive hundreds in ODI cricket. In the 2018 West Indies tour of India, the right-hander registered scores of 140, 157* and 107 during the first 3 ODIs of the 5-match series.

On the other hand, Tendulkar could not quite score three consecutive hundreds in ODI cricket despite featuring in 463 matches.

In the 1997-98 Coca Cola Triangular tournament, Tendulkar scored 2 consecutive hundreds against Australia. The 143 which he hit in that series, famously referred to as the Desert Storm knock, is regarded as one of the greatest innings ever played in ODI cricket. He followed it up with a sensational 134 to guide India to the title.
