Indias star batsman Virat Kohli is on the target of critics these days. There is a demand to remove Virat, who is struggling to score runs, from the Indian team before the T20 World Cup.

Many cricketers are criticizing Virat Kohli

Skipper Rohit Sharma has been defending his teammate Virats poor form but it is becoming increasingly difficult for the BCCI and the selectors to ignore the questions raised by veterans Kapil Dev, Sunil Gavaskar, and Virender Sehwag. However, there is an interesting statistic about Virat Kohli that will surprise you. Virat is the highest run-scorer for India in all three formats.

Three years ago no one could have imagined that Virat would be under question marks for his batting. His performance in all three formats was something like this. He had scored 20,162 runs in 421 innings of 380 matches till the final of the 2019 World Cup at an impressive average of 56.31.
