CricTracker's ODI XI of the year 2016

Virat Kohli (India) (Captain)

Years keep passing by and Virat Kohli keeps getting even better. His reputation as a tough guy and fiercely talented cricketer has remained the same over the years. Kohli has emerged as the mainstay of Indian batting lineup. No target on the board seems unachievable when this man takes the strike.

In 7 out of the 10 matches played he batted in this year, he has registered fifty plus scores. With the persistence he has achieved, he has set batting standards to a level that is probably unmatchable. At a phenomenal average of 92.37, Kohli has managed to aggregate 739 runs this year. A marvel at his game, there cannot be a better contender than him at the No.3 spot.
