- Virat Kohli (5/5):
While Kohli would have earned a 4.5 for his phenomenal batting, it’s his leadership that makes him earn full marks. As a batsman, Kohli was the leading run-getter with 655 runs in eight innings at an average of 109.16. He scored two massive hundreds at Vizag and Mumbai, the latter being among the finest double centuries of all time. Captaincy wise, his tactical changes and use of the pacers remained top notch.
