Virat Kohli Claims No. 1 Spot! Breaks Ricky Ponting's All-Time ODI Record Against New Zealand

What's behind this

In the second ODI between India and New Zealand at Wellington’s Basin Reserve, New Zealand were bowled out for 134 in 40.6 overs, thanks to a disciplined Indian attack led by Gurnoor Brar’s four‑wicket haul of 4/30, which included the wickets of Tom Latham, Glenn Phillips and captain Mitchell Santner. Auqib Nabi added 2/31 in seven overs. While chasing 135, India lost their seventh wicket as Anshul Kamboj was caught off Kyle Jamieson for one, and rain halted play. Virat Kohli moved past Ricky Ponting to become the leading ODI run‑scorer against New Zealand with a cover drive early in the innings.
