Which all records have been broken under Kohli's captaincy?

After the 3rd ODI victory against Australia, Virat Kohli equalled the record set by MS Dhoni and Rahul Dravid for most consecutive wins by an Indian captain. Kohli now has nine consecutive wins, a feat which his predecessor achieved between Nov 2008 to Feb 2009, and Dravid in 2006. Let's look at the records set by Kohli & Co. during his captaincy.

Information
Top spot in ICC and Test rankings

This is the first time in the history that Indian team has managed to grab the top spot in both ICC ODI and Test rankings.

Series Won
6th consecutive ODI series win by Kohli

Win against Australia is Kohli's 6th consecutive series win as the captain, beginning with victory over Zimbabwe in 2016, followed by New Zealand, England, West Indies and Sri Lanka. 6th consecutive series win streak was also achieved by Dhoni and Dravid. Kohli is also the only captain to lead Indian side to a win over Australia in three consecutive matches of an ODI series.

Win %
Best winning percentage as captain

Kohli has the best winning percentage among all the captains who led a national side for 60 matches or more. Across all formats, he has captained 72 matches, and won 52 of them, a winning percentage of 72.22. The Indian captain has won 19 of the 29 Tests he captained, 30 of the 38 ODIs and 3 of the 5 T20Is.

8 out of 8
No Test series loss as a captain yet

From the time he took over as the Test captain, Kohli hasn't lost a single Test match series. From the first series win as captain in 2015 against Sri Lanka, the Indian side went on to beat South Africa, West Indies, New Zealand, England, Bangladesh, Australia, and Sri Lanka, 8 consecutive wins. Only Australia and England have more consecutive Test series wins, 9.

Another feather
Most double tons as India's Test captain

Virat Kohli holds the record for most double centuries by an Indian captain, which is four. While his first double ton as captain came against West Indies in 2016, the latest came against Bangladesh, this February. He is also the fastest to reach 10 Test centuries as India's captain. He did this in 44 innings, overtaking Sunil Gavaskar who did it in 52 innings.
