Indian cricket icon Virat Kohli has unexpectedly claimed a record he would rather avoid — the most ducks among active ODI players, reaching a total of 18 after his latest dismissals.
The milestone occurred during the ongoing ODI series against Australia, where Kohli faced back-to-back ducks. At the Adelaide Oval, he was trapped leg-before by Xavier Bartlett after facing only four balls. Despite the disappointing moment, fans in the stands, mostly Indian supporters, cheered in respect for their beloved star.
Kohli, celebrated for his consistency and match-winning brilliance, is currently experiencing a brief slump. Cricket analysts, however, emphasize that such phases are temporary for players of his caliber. Over the years, Kohli has built a legacy filled with centuries, record-breaking scores, and unmatched determination.
Experts believe these recent low scores will soon be overshadowed by his inevitable comeback. His resilience, work ethic, and hunger for excellence have always defined his journey and continue to inspire young cricketers around the world.
As the series progresses, all eyes remain fixed on Kohli, waiting for the moment he silences his critics and reminds everyone why he is regarded as one of the greatest modern-day cricket legends.
