Virat Kohli once again proved why he is one of the greatest batters in ODI cricket, smashing a sensational hundred against Pakistan to lead India to victory in the ICC Champions Trophy 2025. Kohli, who was struggling for runs leading into the tournament, found his form at the perfect time, giving Team India a major boost.

An in-form Kohli is a game-changer, especially in ICC tournaments, and he will look to continue his match-winning performances as India takes on New Zealand in their final group-stage match.

Kohli's Milestone: 300th ODI Appearance

The India vs New Zealand clash is extra special for Kohli as he becomes the seventh Indian cricketer to play 300 ODIs, joining legendary names like:

Sachin Tendulkar (463 ODIs)
MS Dhoni (347 ODIs)
Rahul Dravid (340 ODIs)
Mohammad Azharuddin (334 ODIs)
Sourav Ganguly (308 ODIs)
Yuvraj Singh (301 ODIs)

Kohli also becomes the first player in cricket history to achieve this unique feat:


300 ODIs
100 Tests
100 T20Is

Kohli, who has retired from T20Is, continues to dominate in ODIs and Test cricket.

Kohli’s ODI Records: A Run Machine Like No Other

Third-highest run-scorer in ODIs – 14,085 runs
Fastest to reach 14,000 ODI runs
Most centuries in ODI history – 51 centuries
Only player to score 50+ ODI hundreds

Kohli’s consistency in ODIs is unmatched, making him one of the greatest batters in the history of the format.

Kohli Nearing Another Big Record in ICC Champions Trophy

Kohli is on the verge of becoming India’s highest run-scorer in ICC Champions Trophy history.

  • Current tally: 651 runs
  • Record holder: Shikhar Dhawan – 701 runs in 13 matches
  • Kohli needs just 52 runs against New Zealand to surpass Dhawan

With Kohli in red-hot form, fans will be hoping for yet another match-winning performance in this crucial encounter.

What’s Next for Kohli & Team India?

With India already in the semifinals, a win against New Zealand will help top Group A. However, with teams like Australia and South Africa waiting in the knockouts, every run Kohli scores will be crucial for India’s title ambitions.
