Despite a good start, RCB faced defeat against Delhi. However, despite the loss, Virat Kohli continues to set one big record after another. Kohli played an innings of 22 runs against Delhi, hitting 2 sixes and 2 fours. With this, he is set to achieve a world record that no one else has.

Virat Kohli Sets Record of 1,000 Boundaries in IPL

Virat Kohli has created history by becoming the first player to hit 1,000 boundaries in the IPL. After the match against Delhi, Kohli’s total number of boundaries reached 1,001.

First Ever in T20 League History

Kohli is not only the first in IPL history but also the first player in any T20 league in the world to hit 1,000 boundaries. No other batter has reached this milestone before.

Shikhar Dhawan Is Next on the List

After Kohli, Shikhar Dhawan is second on the list. He has hit a total of 920 boundaries in IPL, which includes 768 fours and 152 sixes.

Kohli’s Boundary Record So Far

Kohli started IPL 2025 with 977 boundaries, including both fours and sixes. So far, he has hit 16 fours and 8 sixes. Meanwhile, Nicholas Pooran of Lucknow Super Giants is leading the list of boundary hits in IPL 2025 with 25 fours and 24 sixes.

Kohli Close to Breaking Fifties Record

If Kohli scores another fifty in the current IPL, he will join an exclusive club. He will break into the highest fifties record in recognized T20s, where David Warner holds the top spot with 108 fifties in 398 innings. Kohli, with 99 fifties in 387 innings, is close to matching Warner’s achievement.

Kohli Breaks Record for Most Sixes at a Single IPL Venue

Kohli has already broken the record for the most sixes at a single IPL venue. He surpassed Chris Gayle’s record of 127 sixes at the Chinnaswamy Stadium. With two more sixes, Kohli has now hit 130 sixes at this stadium.

Who Can Catch Kohli’s Boundary Record?

Currently, Rohit Sharma has the best chance of catching up with Kohli’s record. Kohli has hit 1,001 boundaries, while Shikhar Dhawan (who retired last year) has 920. David Warner, with 899 boundaries, was not bought in the latest IPL auction, and it is uncertain if he will play again. Rohit Sharma, who has hit 885 boundaries, is still playing in IPL 2025 and could potentially challenge Kohli in the future.
