Indian cricket star Virat Kohli has once again etched his name into the IPL history books by becoming the first player to score over 500 runs in eight different IPL seasons. The former Indian skipper achieved this feat while playing for Royal Challengers Bengaluru against Chennai Super Kings, where he smashed a brilliant 62 off 33 balls, tightening his grip on the Orange Cap in the ongoing season.
So far, Kohli has amassed 505 runs in the current IPL 2025 season at an impressive average of 63.13. His innings played a key role in Bengaluru’s thrilling 2-run victory over Chennai, marking their second win over the franchise in IPL history.
Previously, David Warner was the closest to Kohli’s record, scoring over 500 runs in seven IPL seasons. Kohli’s record-setting performances in earlier seasons include:
- 2011: 557 runs
- 2013: 634 runs
- 2015: 505 runs
- 2016: 937 runs (record-breaking season)
- 2018: 530 runs
- 2023: 639 runs
- 2024: 741 runs
Off the field, Kohli made headlines for an unintentional social media incident. While fans applauded him for wishing his wife Anushka Sharma on her birthday, some were quick to criticize him after he accidentally liked a bold photo of actress Avneet Kaur on Instagram. Kohli later clarified that it was an unintentional interaction, possibly caused by the app’s algorithm while clearing his feed. He urged fans not to jump to conclusions over such minor digital mishaps.
