On the all-time list of most double tons by a player, Kohli's 200 puts him to join at the fourth position, along with Jayawardane of Sri Lanka and Wally Hammond of England.

DG Bradman of Australia in the first position with 12 double ton.

KC Sangakkara of Sri Lanka in the second position with 11 double ton.
