Virat Kohli's Jaw-Dropping ODI Form in 2018


India’s fifth and final ODI against Windies on Thursday Nov 01,2018  was their final 50-over game of the year. Fittingly it was their captain Virat Kohli who was at the crease when the game was won, stroking an unbeaten 33 in a nine-wicket thrashing and with it the series 3-1.


In 2018 Kohli produced some exceptional ODI feats, elevating his stature as the best batsman in the format in the world by a considerable distance.


112, 46 not out, 160 not out, 75, 36, 129 not out, 75, 45, 71, 140, 157 not out, 107, 16, 33 not out – these are his ODI scores in 2018







Kohli has scored 1202 runs at an average of 133.55 in 14 innings this year – a staggering achievement and nothing short of Bradmanesque. It gets better.

His runs have come at a strike rate of 102.55. He has amassed 6 hundreds and registered three fifties this year.

Only two more batsmen – Rohit Sharma (1030 in 19 innings) and Jonny Bairstow (1025 in 22 innings) have crossed 1000 runs in 2018.
