Milestone 1: Surpassing Sachin Tendulkar's Centuries Record

Virat Kohli is on the verge of breaking a monumental record in ODI cricket. Currently, he holds the record for the most centuries in ODIs, having scored 51 centuries in the 50-over format. Former India legend, Sachin Tendulkar, has also scored 51 centuries but in the Test format.

Milestone 3: Climbing the All-Time ODI Runs Ladder

Currently, Kohli is the third-highest run-scorer in ODI history, trailing only Sachin Tendulkar and Kumar Sangakkara. With just 54 runs needed to surpass Sangakkara's tally, this series provides Kohli with an excellent opportunity to move up the all-time list.

Apart from chasing records, Virat Kohli’s very presence in Perth will be a huge thing for his fans. The right-handed batter was last seen on the international stage during the ICC Champions Trophy 2025 final earlier this year. The former India skipper will be eager to maintain his form and carry this momentum through to the 2027 ODI World Cup.
