T20 World Cup After 2024, Virat Kohli is going to be seen in action once again. The teams of India and Sri Lanka are going to face each other in a three-match ODI series and in this series too, Virat Kohli will be in the limelight because many records will be on his target. The Sri Lankan team is also afraid of Virat Kohli because his record against Sri Lanka has been very good, so it will not be easy for the Lankan team to stop Kohli on this tour as well.

This time Virat Kohli is going to get an even weaker Sri Lankan team because many bowlers are out of the ODI series due to injury, while playing new bowlers will not be a difficult task for Kohli. You can guess the condition of Sri Lanka from the fact that Kohli alone has scored as many runs in his ODI career as their entire ODI squad has scored in their ODI career.

Virat has played 292 ODI matches so far, in which he has scored 13848 runs with an average of 58.68. Whereas the entire squad of 16 Sri Lankan players together has 13848 runs equal to Virat's. At the same time, Virat Kohli has scored a total of 50 centuries in his ODI career so far, which is a world record in this format, whereas the combined total of 16 Sri Lankan players is only 17 centuries in ODIs. In such a situation, it is natural for the Sri Lankan team to be afraid of Virat Kohli.

If we look at Virat Kohli's record against Sri Lanka, then this record is much better than his ODI career. Virat has played a total of 53 matches against Sri Lanka so far and during this time he has scored a total of 2594 runs including 10 centuries and 12 half-centuries. Virat's average against Sri Lanka has been 63.26 which is more than his ODI career average. In such a situation, it will be interesting to see whether Sri Lanka's novice bowling is able to stop Virat in this series or not.
