Virat is arguably the greatest batter of his era. After a lean patch with
the bat, Kohli regained his magic touch recently, and is back to his best.
Kohli, who didn’t score a ton for more than three years, ended his century
drought last year in the Asia Cup against Afghanistan, which was his 1st
hundred in T20Is. Since then, the 35-year-old hasn’t looked back, smashing
three centuries in his last seven ODI outings. He is just three ODI tons
away from equalling former India batter Sachin Tendulkar’s (49) record of
scoring the most number of tons in the format.Now, a veteran Pakistani batter has claimed that his record in List A
cricket is better than thatDuring a recent interaction, Khurram Manzoor,
who has represented Pakistan in 16 Tests, seven ODIs and three T20Is, was
asked about a claim he had made over his List A numbers being better than
Kohli.

Manzoor, who last played for Pakistan in 2016, clarified that his intention
was not to compare himself with the former India captain, but to highlight
his achievements in domestic cricket.
“I am not comparing myself with Virat Kohli. Fact is, in 50-overs cricket,
whoever are there in the top-10, I am the world no.1. Kohli is behind me as
he scores a century every six innings. I score century every 5.68 innings,
which is a world record. Over the last 10 years, my average is 53, and I am
ranked fifth in the world, as far as List A cricket is concerned,”
