IND vs AUS: Indian batter Virat Kohli is on the verge of scripting history. He is just 3 runs away from becoming the second-leading run-getter in the history of the ICC World Cup 2023. The right-hander he is on the verge of surpassing Ricky Ponting, who currently is second on the list. 

Virat Kohli in 36 matches has scored 1741 runs at an average of over 60. The batter also has scored 5 hundreds and 11 half-centuries in the history of the World Cup. He’s behind Ricky Ponting (1743) and Sachin Tendulkar (2278). 

Virat Kohli will have a great opportunity to overtake Ricky Ponting as he will be seen in action during IND vs AUS, which will be the final of the ICC World Cup 2023. If he achieves the feat in the game, it’ll be the icing on the cake for most of the fans and agony for Australian fans. 

Virat Kohli is in the red hot form in the ICC World Cup 2023. He is the leading run-getter in the tournament with over 700 runs to his name. There will be huge expectations from him when he steps up on the field for the final of the ICC World Cup 2023. He will have to play a massive role if India has to fancy their chances of winning. 

Virat Kohli will come to bat for the first time in ODIs as the player with the most hundreds. He recently surpassed Sachin Tendulkar to become the batter with the most centuries in the ODIs. The right-hander slammed a magnificent ton in the semi-final and completed his 50th ton.
