On this day in 2008, a 19-year-old, Virat Kohli walked out at Dambulla against Sri Lanka with India missing the heavyweights Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag. Fresh from lifting the U19 World Cup, Kohli was thrown straight into the deep end.
Virat Kohli’s Biggest Records After 17 Years In International Cricket Seventeen years later, the boy who once scratched around nervously against Chaminda Vaas and co. has transformed into one of the all-time greats. At 36, after calling time on his T20I and Test careers, Kohli is still piling up numbers in ODIs and the list of records he holds is nothing short of staggering.
Let’s take a look at Virat Kohli records since his debut in international cricket.

Still Going Strong Seventeen years on, Virat Kohli is still grinding, still sweating it out like a debutant. His fitness has set benchmarks for generations and his hunger hasn’t dipped a bit. He may no longer play every format but in ODIs, he remains India’s heartbeat.
From Dambulla in 2008 to now, Virat Kohli has built a record book that looks like a cricketing encyclopedia. Runs, fifties, hundreds, boundaries, ICC heroics, you name it and Kohli’s name sits at the top.
For 17 years, he has carried the hopes of a billion and if his fitness is any clue, the man is not done yet.
The king still has more chapters to write!
