Australia v India - Game 2
Kohli has a better batting average in international than domestic cricket

As far as ODI batsmanship is concerned, Virat Kohli stands above all his contemporaries. His stupendous records have already made him one of the all-time greats, with regular comparisons to Sachin Tendulkar and Sir Viv Richards coming his way.

Kohli averages an outstanding 55.74 in ODI cricket in 202 games, as opposed to 54.54 in List A cricket, in which he has played 236 games. His strike rate of 91.73 is only marginally lower than his List A strike rate of 92.02.

It is fair to assume that as he plays more ODIs, he will eventually set that right as well.

In T20Is, he averages a staggering 52.91 which is much more than his T20 average of 40.72. His T20I strike rate is also marginally better than his overall T20 strike rate.
