Virat Kohli: Virat Kohli bat is a rain of runs, but there is news of disappointment on a personal level

The ICC has announced the latest ODI batsmen rankings, and there is bad news for Indian star Virat Kohli. Previously ranked number one, Kohli has now dropped to second place. In his place, New Zealand's Daryl Mitchell has reached the number one spot as the world's top ODI batsman.

Mitchell, who scored 352 runs in the ODI series against India, has made a tremendous leap in his rating points. According to the latest rankings, Mitchell now has 845 rating points, which is 51 points more than the previous ranking of 794 points. On the other hand, Virat Kohli's rating points remain stable at 795, but due to Mitchell's progress, he has remained at number two. Kohli had overtaken Rohit Sharma to secure the top spot last week, but Mitchell snatched it away in just one week.

Although Indian fans were certainly disappointed by Kohli losing the number one position, a positive aspect is that three of the top five batsmen are Indian. Virat Kohli is in second place, while captain Rohit Sharma remains in fourth and young opener Shubman Gill is in fifth place.
