Virat Kohli 500 Runs In An IPL Season: Virat Kohli's bat is performing very well in IPL 2026. 37 year old Virat Kohli is making big records one after the other in IPL. Even in the 61st match of the season, Virat batted brilliantly against Punjab Kings and achieved big achievements. By scoring 16 runs in this match, Virat completed his 500 runs in the current season. He achieved this feat in the fourth consecutive IPL season.
This is the 9th season of Virat Kohli's IPL career in which he has scored more than 500 runs.
This figure is a record in IPL history. At second place are David Warner and KL Rahul, who have 7-7 such seasons in their names, while Shikhar Dhawan has achieved this feat 5 times. That means Virat Kohli has gone far ahead of all these stars. Along with this, Virat Kohli is maintaining his form even after crossing the age of 35. After the age of 35, he has achieved the feat of scoring 500+ runs in IPL season thrice. In this matter, he has gone ahead of Sachin Tendulkar and Faf Du Plessis, who have 2-2 such seasons in their names.Death. Taxes.
