However, his days at the top are numbered, as the legendary Virat Kohli is on the brink of overhauling the Sri Lankan maestro.

Kohli, who is set to feature in the upcoming ICC Men’s T20 World Cup in the West Indies and the United States of America, has hammered 103 fours in just 25 innings across the past five editions.
