Indian batting star Virat Kohli recorded an unwanted milestone on Friday after being removed for a duck in the fourth ODI against New Zealand at Bay Oval in Mount Maunganui. Kohli's four-ball dismissal came during India's chase as the men in blue suffered a crushing 244-run defeat. 

With the latest failure, Kohli reached 20 ducks in ODIs, coming in line with legendary batter Sachin Tendulkar for the highest number of ducks by an Indian player in ODIs. However, there is a major difference between both batters because Kohli has reached this figure in 321 matches, whereas Tendulkar took 463 ODIs to register the same number. 

Former Indian fast bowler Javagal Srinath occupies the third position on the list with 19 ducks. Meanwhile, former spinner Anil Kumble and opener Rohit Sharma have recorded 18 ducks each in ODI cricket. Even Rohit Sharma was dismissed for a golden duck in the fourth ODI against New Zealand. 

Most ducks for India in ODIS

Virat Kohli - 20 ducks (321 matches)

Sachin Tendulkar - 20 ducks (463 matches)

Javagal Srinath - 19 ducks (229 matches)

Anil Kumble - 18 ducks (269 matches)

Rohit Sharma - 18 ducks (295 matches)
