Virat Kohli Is The Greatest ODI Player Of All Time: Aaron Finch

Australia national cricket team started their tour on a positive note with a massive 10-wicket win over Indian cricket team a Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai. After having already taken the first lead in the three-match ODI series, Aaron Finch-led team were just a win away from clinching the ODI series. However, Virat Kohli & Co came out on top much to the visitors’ annoyance in the next two games in Rajkot and Bengaluru respectively.

India got the better of Australia in the second match by 36 runs and then they followed it up with yet another power-packed performance in the ODI decider as they beat the tourists by 7 wickets to clinch the series 2-1. Virat Kohli was named the man of the series for being consistent throughout the series.

Kohli chipped in with an overall score of 183 runs in three games. On the other hand, Rohit Sharma who was the second-best player in the series was named the man of the match for his sensational knock under pressure in the third and final ODI game against Australia. Rohit was the pick of the batsmen as he ended up scoring 119 on the back of 8 fours and 6 sixes.

Meanwhile, Australia captain Aaron Finch showered praises on Indian captain and India limited-overs’ captain. He said Virat Kohli is probably the greatest One-Day International player of all-time while adding that Rohit Sharma is probably the top five batsmen of all time. He went on to add saying that Indian players know exactly what needs to be done to finish the job, especially in the big games.

“They’ve got Virat who is probably the greatest ODI player of all-time, and Rohit who’d probably be in the top five batters of all-time. They’re exceptional, and the thing with the Indian side at the moment is their experienced players are getting the job done in the big games,” Finch said as per TOI.

Shikhar Dhawan who walked off the field with a shoulder injury did not play the decider and KL Rahul opened the batting alongside Rohit Sharma. “Rohit’s 100, especially without Shikhar there tonight, for them to shuffle and their two most dominant players to still get a majority of the runs is a sign of a really settled and really quality top-order,” said Australia skipper at the post-match media interaction on Sunday night.
