Dinesh Karthik hails Virat Kohli as once-in-a-generation, questions future of multi-format stars ...Middle East

Kohli is generally considered to be in a rare category of batters who have the skillset to perform consistently in all three formats of cricket - Tests, ODIs, and T20Is - at once. Kohli is one of only three batters to be ranked No. 1 on the ICC batting rankings in all three formats - albeit not simultaneously.

"What it takes to do well in T20 is the complete polar opposite skills compared to what is required to do well in Test cricket. I don't think there will be too many 'all-format' batters or bowlers that will exist, " he said.

Virat Kohli in IPL 2026

Just like in 2024 and 2025, Virat Kohli is currently RCB's highest run-scorer in IPL 2026. Right now, he has 379 runs at an average of 54 and a strike rate of 165 in the tournament. This means that he is still the fifth-highest run-getter of IPL 2026 so far.

Kohli has developed a penchant for breaking records across his career, and that is true in IPL 2026 as well. Earlier this season, Kohli became the first player to make 9,000 runs in the IPL. He also entered the elusive 300 sixes in the IPL club that only contains Chris Gayle and Rohit Sharma apart from him.
