Virat Kohli, one of the greatest T20I batters ever, formally retired from the format following India's victory in the T20 World Cup 2024. Throughout his career, he showcased uncountable records broken and once-in-a-lifetime performances in the shortest form of the game. Even with his unparalleled success, however, there were a few records that were still beyond his grasp. In this piece, we examine three key T20I records that Kohli wasn't able to beat in his illustrious career. Most Centuries Right-handed batsman Kohli had only one T20I hundred throughout his international career, a 122* against Afghanistan in the 2022 Asia Cup. Though he scored several centuries in the Indian Premier League (IPL), he was unable to come close to doing so in India's T20I ranks. On the other hand, heavy hitters such as Rohit Sharma and Glenn Maxwell top the T20I century list with five centuries apiece. While Kohli continued to be a rock of consistency, converting starts to triple figures in T20Is was difficult more frequently than not.

India reached new levels of excellence in Test cricket under his leadership, including record-breaking overseas triumphs. But his stint as T20I captain did have some drawbacks. In the 2021 T20 World Cup in Dubai, the old warhorse captained the Indian team, but the side missed out in the group phase by losing two of five games and not making it to the knockout round. Although Kohli finished with four ICC titles, he did not win an ICC title during his captains' tenure. Most Sixes Virat Kohli was known for having great timing, which was better than most of the other batsmen in that department. He would not use brute strength, but employed accuracy to spot the gaps. In T20 Internationals, he struck 124 sixes in 117 innings, which is an impressive tally but far behind Rohit Sharma, who tops the chart with 205 sixes. Kohli often preferred precise boundaries over towering sixes, highlighting his ability to construct an innings with skill and timing rather than sheer power.
