Kohli On Cusp Of Breaking Dravid's Major Fielding Record In ODIs

Kohli and Dravid are currently tied at 124 catches. While Dravid did it in 340 matches, Kohli has played 242 ODIs so far.

Indian captain Virat Kohli usually hogs the limelight for breaking batting records every second innings but the prolific run scorer is also on the cusp of reaching a major fielding milestone when he leads the team out against Australia in first ODI the Wankhede Stadium on Tuesday. Apart from being known as one of the best batsmen of his generation, Kohli is also recognized for his sharpness in the field. He is now one catch away from surpassing former captain Rahul Dravid in the list of most catches by a fielder for India. Kohli and Dravid are currently tied at 124 catches. While Dravid did it in 340 matches, Kohli has played 242 ODIs so far. Kohli is not too far away from the top of that list. Former captain Mohammad Azaruddin tops the chart with 154 catches in 334 matches while Sachin Tendulkar has got 140 catches in 463 matches.
