Kohli has been India's batting talisman in the last few years
If Tendulkar was the mandatory choice as an opener, then surely its the same case with Virat Kohli for the Number 3 position. Cricket in its history has had players who have made the game look easy. Kohli has actually made the process of century-making look like a walk in the park, in 50-over cricket.
35 hundreds in 211 matches with 9779 runs at an average of 58.20. At this present moment, it would not be wrong to say that when Kohli finishes with the game, there would be few players who would be close to him and even fewer after he finishes who could break the records that he would have in his name when he's done.
