India captain Virat Kohli and Australian Steve Smith are some of the names that will appear in the question ‘Who is the best hitter of the moment?’.
The duo’s consistent performances in international cricket over the past few years are striking.
And based on that performance, both Kohli and Smith garnered tremendous recognition.
Virat Kohli has won the Sir Garfield Sobers Award for ICC Cricketer of the Year.
Australian star Steven Smith has been named the best cricketer of the decade.
The ICC announced the winners on Monday.
On Sunday, the ICC released the list of top performing cricketers from 2010 to 2020.
Where the names of the best cricketers of the decade are chosen in three formats of Test, ODI and T20.
And Kohli has given a unique example on this list.
India’s starting captain Virat Kohli has dominated the ICC three-format squad. It is ranked in the top eleven of the three Test formats, ODI and T20. Furthermore, no other cricketer has found a place in the top three teams of the decade.
Kohli has been showing surprises since 2008. At that time, India won the U-19 World Cup under his leadership.
Kohli has set record after record on the national team.
In 2013, for the first time, ODI hitters reached first place in the ICC rankings. He was named Man of the Tournament at ICC World Twenty20 (2014 and 2016).
He holds the record of 10,000 and 11,000 runs as the fastest batsman in ODI cricket.
Kohli recently hit the 22,000-race milestone, breaking the record for national legend Sachin Tendulkar.
