Another testament to Kohli's greatness is his incredible success across all formats of the game. He averages over or near 50 in all the formats. Modern day cricket requires professional cricketers to be able to play shorter and longer formats of the game almost concurrently.

The skills and temperament required to succeed in these formats couldn't be more different. Kohli switches from one format to another seamlessly. He absorbs the pressure, makes the necessary technical adjustments to his batting, focuses on his task and gets on with it. It's truly a tribute to his incredible mental strength.
