When Virat Kohli started his Test career, he faced West Indies players on 20 June 2011 vs West Indies and the last match Virat played as a test cricket vs Srilanka on 12 March 2022.

Virat Kohli has scored 8,043 runs in his entire Test history by playing 101 matches. Virat Kohli started his ODI match Debut in 2008 against Sri Lanka, and the last ODI match he played was on 11 February 2022 vs West Indies. Virat Kohli's favourite ODI shirt number is 18.

So let's talk about IPL, what has Virat Kohli earned in IPL to date and in how many people’ heart has he made a place? Virat Kohli is one of the batsmen of the order who had bid 15 to 16 crores during the starting days of IPL. Due to some reason, Virat Kohli's team Royal Challengers Bangalore has not been able to win the final trophy to date, but even today, his fan base is loyal to him and his team and always will be and Royal Challengers Bangalore got the most love on social media. Virat Kohli played a total of 223 matches in the career of IPL and played 215 innings with 6624 runs. Virat Kohli has scored 5 centuries in the history of IPL, and he has scored 44 times half-century, and his highest score is 113 runs.

2. Shikhar Dhawan

If we talk about the top ten best players worldwide, how can we forget Shikhar Dhawan, International Player and top performer? He has also been awarded the best playing rate across all formats and is the most active person on social media. It is believed that the left-hand batters are blessed, one of which is our Shikhar Dhawan.

Shikhar Dhawan remains in the discussion due to one of his best skills, and his nickname suits him very well. People also believe that Gabbar, his nickname, was given to him from the movie Sholay.

Which is Gabbar. He is the only player who scored 505 runs against Bangladesh in only Under the Ninth match in 2004; Shikhar Dhawan is the fastest player to reach 2000 and the 3000 runs in One Day International (ODIs). Dhawan scored 187 runs against Australia in 2013, a debut record in the history of Indian cricket.

Shikhar always says that he is always serious and worries about how he plays a lot of concentration he put into the game between 2013-2018. So let's talk about Shikhar Dhawan all matches format. Shikhar played 34 Test March, in which he made 2315 runs with an average rate of 40.6, which is good in the test cricket field, and he always serves the best strike rate in all formats, so he gives 66.9 in the test strike rate. Dhawan also knows the best performer in the Test and ODI cricket; he played 149 ODI against the World's best teams and gave 6284 runs in 149 innings with an average rate of 45.5 and 93.4 was the strike rate given Dhawan in ODI.

Dhawan was a comes in the very first player who played India after under 19, so he always believed and strived for the hard work or dedication in T20 Dhawan scored 1759 in 2011 only in 68 matches which is quite impossible for any player to perform in a year, The strike rate given by Dhawan in T20 is 126.4 which is better than the average performance.

So if we talked about the Dhawan performance in the IPL, which was fabulous from start to end, Shikhar Dhawan is also known as the Best Player in IPL after the World's favourite Virat Kohli. Suppose Virat scores IPL 6624 runs in 223 innings, on the other hand. In that case, our Shikhar Dhawan is not going to sit, so he gives 6244 runs in 206 innings near the Virat Kohli, so with the help of the parameters and the diagnosis of the matches, we say he is the IPL'S second-best player without any doubt.

But many times, such players from abroad also make a place in the hearts of Indian IPL fans; one of them is our David Warner. David Warner may be a foreign cricketer, but David Warner's fans are many in the World as well as in India. And that's probably also because IPL is the only festival that creates power and strength in every shape.

In the entire IPL, David Warner is the only player who has made the record of making the most half-centuries, which he has made 53 times in the IPL carrier; David Warner is also known for One Most Stunning Shorts played during all IPL seasons.

After the Virat Kohli and the Shikhar Dhawan, David Warner is making his place in the third position because he played 162 matches and his total runs were 5881, which is nearly 6k.

If we are talking about the best 10 people in the world, how can we forget the great batsman Rohit Sharma? Rohit Sharma has taken over the Captain's innings after Virat Kohli and continues to handle it even further.

In his early days, he joined the Indian team as a bowler. To date, he has been considered such an unbeatable player; Rohit Sharma still says thanks to Mahi bhai because he has been able to come on the right track of his career. Still, after a few days, in the middle of a match, Mahendra Singh Dhoni asked them and said that Rohit would go to the opening and Rohit has said yes.

Rohit Sharma is also known because he is the only Indian player with more than double century ODI format. Rohit Sharma started his test debut as an Indian in 2013 vs West Indies.

Rohit Sharma is also on the list of top half-century performers; he has already covered over 40 half-centuries in his IPL career.

Under the captaincy of Rohit Sharma, Mumbai Indians played 143 matches in which they won 81 more than the half.

5. Suresh Raina

Suresh Raina started his life in cricket by playing domestic matches in Uttar Pradesh. We all have seen the biggest players, but this is a player whom we also know by Hanuman. Hanuman is the name of a Lord God, and Suresh Raina not only looks like Hanuman but also gives a powerful performance like him.

Suresh Raina and Mahendra Singh Dhoni's friendship is awesome. As soon as Mahendra Singh Dhoni retired from Cricket, Suresh Raina also lost a sentence and announced that he was retiring from cricket with Mahi Bhai. Suresh Raina started playing in Chennai in his early days. Chennai is the best team to come after Mumbai in IPL, and Suresh Raina has shown some such feats, which were almost impossible in the history of cricket.

Some people believe that left-handed batman vultures are gifted, and Suresh Raina is one of them, But, with time, everything changes; maybe that's why Suresh Raina remains unsold in IPL 2022. No matter how big a player, everyone's good batting and performance format ends similarly; probably, the year 2022 is being unsold.

We believe that Suresh Raina is a very good player in the format of tests; that's why he scored 768 runs in only 18 test matches which is quite generous to the people because he played well. Good on that Test matches and also he scored 120 runs in one of the test matches, or Suresh is not being good in the test but also in the ODI format he plays well, he played only 226 ODI matches and scored 5615 runs with the top score of 116 runs, so Suresh Raina is the player who always performs well in every format, this is the reason behind IPL ranking he is in the list of 10 top World best IPL cricketer. In his full carrier, he picks 285 catches with few misses, so that's right to give the title to him and the name Hanuman. Suresh Raina likes to cook in his free time and is always active on social media.

Many big players came in the history of IPL, but one player came who could change the match anyhow. He is known as Mr 360, and this player was given the name Mr 360 because he had the power to kill any ball to the boundary.

A.B. de Villiers has given very good performance not only in cricket but in many other sports. It is believed that these A.B. de Villiers take up to 11 - 15 crores yearly in IPL.

Every cricketer has their time, but it is believed that when the de Villiers bat speaks, the ball just goes outside the boundary; but De Villiers is not able to play in front of Ravichandran Ashwin and Dwayne bravo in some seasons; these are the only 2 bowlers who strike out De Villiers much time.

Many outside players are considered in India, but the matter of de Villiers is different; his fan following is the highest in India who play IPL. He made his debut in 2004 in the test match, then played powerfully ODI in 2005, or he played for royal challengers Bangalore between 2011-2019; he is the right-arm batsman known as Mr 360.

And this biography movie was on top of the biographic movie at that time, and this movie also became a super-duper hit. Mahendra Singh Dhoni is a very calm person and has also got the title of Captain Cool. If we talk about the best Captain in the World, then our Mahi Bhai has been at the top since the beginning.
