SPORTS |Virat Kohli on Wednesday became the fastest batsman to reach 10,000 runs in one-day internationals (ODI). He reached the milestone while playing against the West Indies in Visakhapatnam.
With this, Kohli surpassed fellow Indian batting great Sachin Tendulkar, who earlier reached the milestone in 259 innings in 2001, becoming the fifth Indian to reach the 10,000-mark in ODIs.
Business Standard yesterday conducted a poll asking users across Twitter, Facebook and its website whether Virat Kohli’s 10,000 runs in ODIs make him the best batsman India has ever seen.| India Vs West Indies
Here are the results of the 24-hour poll:
The YES club: Of over 1,200 votes received across all platforms, around 580 or 47 per cent were of the view that Virat Kohli’s 10,000 runs in ODIs make him the best batsman in India. The NO club: As opposed to previous votes, around 528 or 43 per cent people were of the view that despite Kohli’s 10,000 runs, he is not the best Indian batsman.
Can’t say: Around 10 per cent said that they weren’t sure whether Kohli is the best batsman India has ever had. Individual result recorded at Business Standard website, Twitter anf Facebook.
The table above shows that while poll-takers on Twitter and Facebook consider Virat Kohli as the best batsman India has ever seen, poll-takers on the BS website seem to disagree by a large margin.
