 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the template.  This editor is requesting the infobox image be changed, so the two of you should discuss. I will point out that the intention of an infobox image is to help readers identify the subject. An image where part of the subject's face is obscured by sunglasses, is probably not ideal for this purpose. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 17:48, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

Virat Kohli's Test Cap No is 269, in this article it is given as 270 which is wrong. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_India_Test_cricketers According to the given link above, the test cap no of Virat Kohli is 269 which is the correct test cap no. Shaunak0701 (talk) 05:41, 17 March 2021 (UTC)


 * ✅. However as per reliable source of ESPNcricinfo his test cap number is 268. -- Holy Contributor 92 (talk) 06:07, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

As my previous edit request said that Virat Kohli's test cap no is 269, but the changes made are 268. https://s3.ap-southeast-1.amazonaws.com/images.deccanchronicle.com/dc-Cover-0s1hg492i649j4ni5sdmhdda61-20161108120729.Medi.jpeg https://cdn.dnaindia.com/sites/default/files/styles/full/public/2018/01/22/644215-virat-kohli-afp.jpg Here I have attached 2 links which have Virat Kohli's two photos in which he is actually wearing a cap which mentions his cap number as 269 and neither 268 nor 270. I request you to re-edit the cap no to 269. Shaunak0701 (talk) 05:30, 24 March 2021 (UTC)


 * ❌ as of now but it seems

interesting request. However as far as reliable sources are concerned the number is 268. Have a look at this source from ESPN cricinfo (one of the most trusted sites) List of India Test Cricketers If you have reliable sources suppporting your desired changes please bring it on talk page and then we will discuss about it. But as of now, We should stick to the source. Holy Contributor 92 (talk) 14:04, 24 March 2021 (UTC)

Wrong info given.
"For his knock, he was awarded the man of the match award, his 20th in ODIs and first in a World Cup match." Under the Test captaincy column, this was written regarding his century against Pakistan in 2015 WC but it was actually his second WC century, the first one being against Bangladesh in his debut Wc match. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2402:3A80:B07:30A9:888F:900:60FE:907C (talk) 10:18, 24 January 2021 (UTC)

As I had said earlier that Virat Kohli has a test cap number 269, but the so called reliable sources like ESPN cric info have the wrong information with them. in 2011 Abhinav Mukund, Virat Kohli and Praveen Kumar made their test debut against West Indies in the same match and their cap numbers are 268, 269, 270 respectively. I would like to attach the links of 3 photos in which all 3 are seen wearing their respective jersey's with their cap numbers. https://www.thenationalnews.com/image/policy:1.618757:1502439961/Abhinav-Mukund.jpg?f=16x9&w=1200&$p$f$w=d65337a https://im.rediff.com/cricket/2017/nov/26kohli-lead1.jpg https://akm-img-a-in.tosshub.com/indiatoday/images/story/202001/RTX4TVT2.jpeg?48gWtKc9ta9QrjJZQhG9lu_SG0zX4VJp&size=770:433 I think there is no more clear proof or indication than this. Sometimes the reliable source too might have wrong information. So I request you to edit the cap number to 269. 268 is misleading information from ESPN cricinfo. Thank You!! Shaunak0701 (talk) 06:18, 29 March 2021 (UTC)


 * ❌ for now as i said earlier come back with reliable sources which contradicts ESPN cricinfo source. What you are doing now is part of original research which is not acceptable on Wikipedia. Wikipedia doesn't publish original thought.

Even if the source of cricinfo is incorrect you have to provide a quality source which says cricinfo source is incorrect about this bit. If you have any reliable source which mention his test cap no. as 269 or Kohli himself saying that My Test cap no. is 269 feel free to change it. If not then Sorry i can't add your desired changes in article. Despite the fact i too believe there is a mistake on cricinfo.

Can you please look into this matter ??? Holy Contributor 92 (talk) 15:41, 29 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the ping. Good question - it looks like the photo evidence is 269 and the Cricinfo table is incorrect. But I don't know for sure, so I've droped a note at WT:CRIC for more input.  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 16:12, 29 March 2021 (UTC)

I agree looks like Cricinfo table mess up Kohli and Mukund cap number. Almost all the images mention the number as 269.Holy Contributor 92 (talk) 16:29, 29 March 2021 (UTC)

The Cricinfo tables are auto generated based on first appearence and then alphabetically. Sometimes the actual numbers dont quite match. For major nations such as India they are usually pretty accurate, but there are some small exceptions such as here. A reference (in which his cap number is stated) would be helpful if possible.

As of now I don't have a solid proof which says that Virat's Cap No. is 269 but I have a proof which says that Abhinav Mukund is the 268th player to represent India. I am attaching a link of a tweet by Abhinav Mukund himself which says that he is the 268th player to represent India. Please do check it out. https://twitter.com/mukundabhinav/status/1274223129557004288?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1274223129557004288%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Ftimesofindia.indiatimes.com%2Fsports%2Fcricket%2Fnews%2Fabhinav-mukund-recalls-his-test-debut-against-west-indies%2Farticleshow%2F76480577.cms So if Abhinav Mukund is himself saying that he is the 268th player then Virat can't be the 268th player, Virat has to be 269th player. Check out the link above and revert back. Thank You!! Shaunak0701 (talk) 07:44, 30 March 2021 (UTC)


 * and Shaunak0701  added a tweet of Mukund himself saying that He was 268th test player of India I cross checked and Its indeed original account of Mukund. I think its clear now that this is error on cricinfo part. Should We revert it boldly to 269 in Kohli ??? Holy Contributor 92 (talk) 11:59, 30 March 2021 (UTC)


 * Yes, I'm fine with that, esp. as the sources/images clearly show the numbers. Hopefully Bs1jac's contact at Cricinfo can also update their source data. Thanks for your time with this.  Lugnuts  Fire Walk with Me 12:01, 30 March 2021 (UTC)

Virat Kohli is an Indian cricketer and was the captain of India national cricket team in Tests. He plays for Delhi in domestic cricket and Royal Challengers Bangalore in the Indian Premier League as a right-handed batsman(Hindustani: [ʋɪˈɾɑːʈ ˈkoːɦliː] (audio speaker iconlisten); born 5 November 1988) is an Indian cricketer.

User:Bonadea you reverted the info about batting avg, inconsistency of this sub. WP is guidelines says editors to be neutral, we can't add just good things and close eyes about bitter things. The sources are backing the lines but you removed them. The para was providing stats from last 2.5 yrs. I suggest you to rewrite the important things and discuss on talk page before doing this kind of major changes.Success think (talk) 15:19, 14 March 2022 (UTC)


 * I removed part of the utterly inappropriate language, together with some details that were not relevant here. The removed text could absolutely not remain in the article; maybe some of the info could be restored in a different form, but the important thing was to get it removed as quickly as possible, since it violated a very central Wikipedia policy, which is particularly important in a biography of a living person. Wikipedia cannot say in its own voice that a season or a tour or whatever was "disastrous", it certainly can't say that a team "was badly hammered" or that it "bounced backed[sic] strongly", nor can it say that a player "managed to score" a certain number of runs, or that he scored a "crucial" point. Headings, too, should be neutral. "Poor form" or "Failing to score big knocks" are problematic phrases in headings, not only because "score big knocks" is a colloquialism that most readers won't understand. As for stats, those should not be indiscriminately included; "in [the] last two and [a] half year[s] [...] failed to score a hundred in any format" doesn't belong in an encyclopedia article (not only because "the last two-and-a-half years" violates MOS:CURRENT). And in a paragraph discussing a particular tour or match, making comparisons to other tours or matches is out of scope.  --bonadea contributions talk 18:12, 14 March 2022 (UTC)

Philanthropy
Virat’s ambitions for a better India have grown beyond the sports arena to creating a better tomorrow for the underprivileged youth of our country. He is committed to build youth focused programs, which connect children to resources and use his partnerships to setup support services to the vulnerable section of our society.He and Anushka Sharma are both passionate about animals and they have made personal contributions consistently to help the cause of the thousands of stray animals in our city, as well as contributed to wildlife relief efforts. With his support extended to Awaaz, he can create well planned medical services, shelter and food to the strays that are the forgotten and often brutalized in Mumbai.

In May 2016 : Virat Kohli Foundation has joined hands with Smile Foundation, a national level development organization, to support the cause of empowerment of underprivileged Children and Youth. As a first step towards this endeavor, a one-of-its-kind charity dinner in Mumbai is going to be organised in June. Virat Kohli himself will host the charity dinner and it will bring together eminent cricketers, industry stalwarts, corporate honchos, Bollywood personalities and achievers from diverse fields. The evening will also have the element of auction of high-end luxury products, entertainment and a five course Michelin starred treatment dinner for 200 distinguished guests.

Virat visited an Old Age home in Pune during 2016 IPL season in Pune. There speaking on the occasion, Kohli said, “''People like Dr. Aparna are doing remarkable work by running such a facility for all those elderly, who have been left (alone) by their dear ones. This is absolutely wrong and it is our duty to take care of the elderly members of our family.''” The Virat Kohli Foundation and ABIL Foundation have now joined hands to extend immediate help to Aabhalmaya to end its financial crunch.

Virat Kohli donation to Prime Minister's Relief Fund

In wake of the coronavirus crisis across India, Virat Kohli along with his wife and Bollywood actor Anushka Sharma pledged to donate an unspecified amount to the Prime Minister's Relief Fund and Chief Minister's Relief Fund of Maharashtra. Though unverified, this figure is said to be ₹1.5 crore each from the celebrity couple as per multiple media reports. Apart from his donation to the cause, the cricketer also took to Twitter and urged fellow Indian citizens to stay indoors until the lockdown remains in effect.

 * If you've not had a look at WP:GA? then that would be a good place to see what the main criteria are. As well as the spag issues, cricket articles suffer from consisting of context-free list of scores (often many sentances that say something like On 3rd of Septanuary Kohli scored 42 and 27 against Some Team and nothing else). Not every game needs to be mentioned and performances need to be given some backround and commentary from third parties. Also have a look at the article when it was listed as a Good article back in 2015. Spike &#39;em (talk) 10:45, 22 November 2022 (UTC)

Timeline headings
Dear Wikipedia editors,

I am writing to propose a change to the headings in this article. Currently, the headings are organized as Early international career","Consistent performances in international cricket". However, I believe that reorganizing the headings into a timeline format would make the article more navigable and easier for readers to understand the chronology of events.

For example, the articles on Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo both have timeline-based headings, such as "2004–2005: Success at youth level," "2005–2006: Senior and World Cup debuts" and "2012–2016: All-time Portugal top scorer and European champion." This organization allows readers to easily see the progression of events in these individuals' lives and careers.

I believe that implementing similar headings in this article would improve the overall readability and understanding of the content for our readers.

Waiting for views on this. Thank You  ✨Ashish Legend✨  02:55, 9 January 2023 (UTC) ✨Ashish Legend✨ 02:55, 9 January 2023 (UTC)  ✨Ashish Legend✨ 02:55, 9 January 2023 (UTC)  ✨Ashish Legend✨ 02:55, 9 January 2023 (UTC)

Virat Kohli: Modification of Lead Para
Hello Ashish 1816,

Thank you for your message regarding the inclusion of less notable medal tournaments in the infobox and the prioritization of statistics in the lead paragraph.

While it is important to keep the infobox concise and relevant, it is also essential to include all significant achievements of the subject of the article. In the case of Virat Kohli, his record of being the second person to hit the most number of centuries in international cricket is a noteworthy and impressive achievement that deserves to be mentioned in the infobox.

Furthermore, the lead paragraph should highlight the most significant and impressive statistics of the subject of the article. While most runs in T20I and IPL are undoubtedly noteworthy, being second in most centuries is also a highly significant and impressive achievement that deserves to be mentioned.

If you have any further concerns or questions regarding the article, I would be happy to discuss them with you. Thank you for your input and efforts in improving the quality of the article.

Best regards, Call Me Anshu (talk) 02:29, 10 April 2023 (UTC)


 * While I appreciate your point of view, let's take a moment to reflect on the significance of being second in something. Is it truly noteworthy? In my opinion, not really. It is the individuals who achieve something extraordinary, who make a mark are remembered. In the case of Kohli, he has already made his mark by being the highest run scorer in IPL and T20I, which is a remarkable. However, when it comes to being second in most centuries, I feel that it is not as significant as being the first. Therefore, for the time being, wait and observe if he scores the most centuries in the future, then it would then be a legitimate addition to his already impressive resume. ✨Ashish Legend✨ 11:36, 19 April 2023 (UTC)

Virat Kohli vs Babar Azam Latest Compraison in ODI,Test and T20
Virat Kohli and Babar Azam] did not start international cricket together. In this, Virat Kohli is about 6 or 7 years ahead of Babar Azam.

Both bat at the top position for their country and both are superstars, but there is a debate on who is the better of the two, so today we will compare their careers to find out. It will be easy. India was lucky that the same young man took over before Schain Tendulkar’s departure and made up for his absence well, but on the other hand, it was not the case that Younes Khan left shorty after Inzamam-ul-Haq and Mohammed Yousuf left. Pakistan did not have a batsman to fill his place and then in 2016 a batsman in the form of Babar Azam came and overshadowed. Leadmore @www.cricfr.com Cricfr (talk) 14:30, 10 June 2023 (UTC)

Change current content to Virat Kohli, the luminary of modern cricket, stands as a luminescent icon of the sport. His name resonates with unwavering consistency and unparalleled mastery on the pitch. Hailing from Delhi, India, Kohli's journey epitomizes dedication, skill, and an unyielding passion for the game.

A maestro with the bat, Kohli's batting prowess is a spectacle in itself. His flawless stroke play, impeccable timing, and an insatiable hunger for runs have redefined the art of batting. His ability to chase down targets, his sheer determination, and the adaptability to various formats have propelled him into the echelons of cricketing legends.

A former captain of the Indian national team, Kohli’s leadership was marked by intensity, setting high standards, and an unrelenting drive for excellence. His strategic acumen and fiery on-field presence have etched remarkable chapters in Indian cricket history.

Off the field, Kohli's commitment to fitness and work ethic is a testament to his holistic approach towards the game. A figure inspiring many, his discipline, and dedication serve as a beacon for aspiring cricketers worldwide.

The impact of Virat Kohli extends far beyond the boundary ropes. His charisma, sportsmanship, and philanthropic initiatives make him a global icon. Kohli’s influence on and off the pitch exemplifies the true essence of a cricketing colossus.

I kindly request the correction of content within the Virat Kohli Wikipedia article. There appears to be misleading or insulting information that requires rectification. I propose the revision to ensure the content accurately reflects verified and respectful information about Mr. Kohli's career and personal details.

Request :- King Kohli, Run Machine, Chase Master, Chiku ...these were included in his nickname section before but got removed... Plz put them back again🙏🙏..

PLEASE CHECK IT OUT 45.118.75.83 (talk) 18:19, 12 March 2024 (UTC)


 * It looks like King Kohli was originally there, then all the nicknames got removed for being "unencyclopedic" (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Virat_Kohli&diff=prev&oldid=1183746033), then gradually re-added, and then @Vkwiki100 removed all of them except Chiku, with an explainer for that one. (https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Virat_Kohli&diff=prev&oldid=1199250364) Probably a better source for the nicknames is https://www.india.com/sports/de-villiers-has-a-new-nickname-for-virat-kohli-3636679/, the original source before it all got deleted and re-added again, which is a full-on news story. From the article it seems like "run machine" might just be something people call him to say he's good at batting. I'll add King Kohli, but given people keep deleting and re-adding and deleting these, and it's unclear why @Vwiki100 removed them, I'll not do the other ones unless somebody else knows better. Mrfoogles (talk) 00:29, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
 * Actually, check that, just read the Biographies_of_living_persons warning.
 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done for now: There doesn't seem to be consensus on whether these other nicknames should be added (given they keep being added and deleted) and a side mention from an india.com article about a tweet isn't the most reliable, and even it says they're mostly used when talking about his batting skills. Mrfoogles (talk) 00:39, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
 * If there was an article specifically about the nickname, or if we knew why the other nicknames got removed originally, that would probably work. Mrfoogles (talk) 00:40, 13 March 2024 (UTC)
 * I removed other nicknames because there was no source in the whole article talking about the nicknames. Only "Cheeku" had a source. Mention of "Chase Master" and "King Kohli" in a title of a news piece is not enough for them to be kept in the nickname section. Though I think "King Kohli" is quite popular, so if one finds a source talking about it, then it can be added. There have been discussions on the WP:CRIC talk page about whether to keep the nicknames at all in the infobox. In my opinion, they're just useless, and fans just keep adding and removing them.

 * Hello Pharaoh496,
 * What you said is correct, but it was added after I put forward my request Adhiraj Choudhari (talk) 08:50, 30 March 2024 (UTC)
 * It was there since long, and got removed. I have re-added it. Pharaoh496 (talk) 08:55, 30 March 2024 (UTC)

Bold Split: Career of Virat Kohli
I have split away the entire franchise, domestic and international career of Kohli into a new article mentioned above. Reason: Too long with no attempts to shorten and info being added by the hour.

I have seen this work when Lionel Messi was split to form Career of Lionel Messi; to shorten the article and make a fresh page of the career. This will ensure retention of information and 2 worthwile articles remaining be formed.

The new article also needs work: The lead, removal of bias; it has the problems which it had when it was here.

I have added this to the sidebar as well.
