Consistent Kohli hungry for more

-

– Indian captain Virat Kohli has set a new benchmark for consistenc­y but the 29-year-old says he feels no sense of entitlemen­t even after a decade of internatio­nal cricket.

Kohli became the fastest batsman to reach 10 000 one-day internatio­nal runs in his 205th innings against West Indies on Wednesday, eclipsing compatriot Sachin Tendulkar’s previous record by an astounding 54 innings. With over 1 000 ODI runs in 2018, Kohli walks out to the crease with an aura of near-invincibil­ity but he said the secret still lies in working hard for every run. – Reuters
