#4 Virat Kohli

Kohli
Kohli is the leading run-scorer in IPL

No player has scored more runs than Kohli in the history of the IPL. Only one has scored more centuries in the tournament (Chris Gayle has 5) than his four while he is one of only two players who have scored over 4,000 runs in the tournament. So there should be no surprise at his presence in this list.

The Indian captain is also the only person on this list to have played all his games for just one IPL team (Royal Challengers Bangalore). With 139 matches under his belt, Kohli takes the fourth spot on the all-time IPL appearances chart. Although he hasn't been able to add an IPL title to his kitty, he has almost done everything he possibly can for RCB.

All of Virat Kohli's four IPL centuries came in IPL 2016 but his tally of 4,110 runs at an average of 38.05 and strike rate of over 130 merely highlights his consistency in the format. His tally of 26 fifties in the tournament is only bettered by four players and there can be little doubt about his status as one of the best to have every played in the tournament.
