Virat Kohli's 2500 runs and three more World records broken in February

#2. Virat Kohli - 2500 runs on a single ground:

Virat Kohli

Indian captain Virat Kohli has been in prolific form since the start of 2019. He is the only cricketer to average 50+ across all the three formats at present. During the second T20I against Australia, he scored 72 runs off of 38 balls, which included two fours and six sixes. It is not often that you see Kohli hitting more sixes than fours in an innings.

We witnessed a different Kohli that day. It was a player playing on his favorite ground - the Chinnaswamy stadium in Bengaluru. It is a familiar place for the RCB captain, as he has played most of his IPL games at this ground. During the innings against the Aussies, he became the first cricketer to score over 2500 T20 runs in a single ground, including three centuries. These are incredible numbers.

Among the Indians, only Kohli has scored more than 2000 T20 runs at a ground. The second best is the Indian vice-captain Rohit Sharma, who has 1699 runs at the Wankhede stadium. Former Indian opener Gautam Gambhir take the third place with 1462 runs at Eden Gardens.
