Former England captains Michael Attarton and Nasir Hussain, influenced by Virat Kohli’s excellent record in ODI cricket, praised him and called him the all -time great player of ODIs. Kohli scored an unbeaten 100 in the Champions Trophy match against Pakistan on Sunday, which is his 51st century in ODIs. During this, he also became the third batsman in the world to complete 14000 runs in ODIs after Sachin Tendulkar and Kumar Sangakkara.

Attarton told Sky Sports, “Virat Kohli has no harm in the case of chasing the target in ODI cricket. There is no better than them in cricket history in this matter. The ODI has an incredible figure of 51 centuries. ,
One of England’s most successful captains, Hussain said, “He is a unique player. You can say that he is an all -time great player in ODIs. The figures are witness to this. Tendulkar, Kumar and AB de Villiers are all great players but are at the top. ”
Virat Kohli (14085 runs) is still 4341 runs behind Tendulkar (18426) and at the age of 36 he has a very limited time to reach this point but Ponting does not think it is an impossible task for Kohli.
Ponting said in the ICC review, “I don’t think I have seen a better player than Virat Kohli in the 50 -over format.” Now that he (in terms of scoring the most runs) has overtaken me and now only two batsmen are ahead of him, I am sure that he is sure that he should remember himself as the batsman who scored the most runs in this format. Will give the best chance. ”
