World Cup 2023: Virat Kohli will break this record of former Australian captain Ricky Ponting in this World Cup!
This time India is hosting the World Cup and at this time the entire Indian team is in form. The team has played five matches so far and has won all five. Along with this, team player and former captain Virat is also in full form at the moment and has played an inning of 95 runs against New Zealand.
With this innings, he is at fourth place in the list of players scoring most runs in the 50 overs format and in this World Cup, he can reach third place in this list. For this, Virat Kohli needs to score only 267 runs. Currently, Virat has 13,437 runs and in this format, Australia's star batsman Ricky Ponting is ahead of him. He has scored 13,704 runs during his career.
In such a situation, Virat is currently 267 runs behind Ponting. India has played only five matches at the league level in the World Cup and has four more matches left at this stage. In such a situation, Virat can break this record of Ricky Ponting in these matches only.
