The last decade truly belonged to the Indian skipper Virat Kohli, who ended as the highest run-getter across formats. The same was acknowledged by the ICC when Kohli was named ICC Male Cricketer of the Decade. Notably, he also won the ODI Cricketer of the Decade. In the current decade, Kohli scored 20,396 runs and 66 tons.

Yesterday, Kohli was named as the skipper of the Men's Test Team of the Decade. Interestingly, he also features in the ODI and T20I teams. He had a phenomenal run in the 2010s, where he became a run machine: Tests: 86 matches, 7240 runs, 53.62 average, 27 tons ODIs: 208 matches, 10388 runs, 61.83 average, 39 tons T20Is: 80 matches, 2768 runs, 50.32 average
