India had to face defeat by 2 wickets in the second ODI against Australia. The most talked about thing in this high voltage match was Virat Kohli’s dismissal for a duck (0 runs) for the second consecutive time. Kohli, who was once called a run machine, is now in the headlines because of a record which no batsman would like to make. This is the 40th time that Virat has returned to the pavilion without scoring any runs in international cricket.

Zaheer Khan at number one

Former Indian fast bowler Zaheer Khan is at the top of this list. Zaheer, who played 309 matches in all three formats for India, was out 43 times without opening the account. He made the team win many matches with the ball, but his contribution with the bat was limited.

Virat Kohli is in second place

At number two is Virat Kohli, who is considered to be India’s most reliable batsman. However, statistics show that Kohli now has 40 ducks in his name. In his illustrious career, Kohli has scored about 28 thousand international runs and 82 centuries, but this ‘duck record’ is like a stain on his golden career. In the second ODI played in Adelaide, he was once again out without scoring a run.

Ishant Sharma at number three

The third name in this list is that of Ishant Sharma. This tall fast bowler has faced ducks 40 times in his international career. Although his defensive batting ability was often praised, he was rarely able to score big scores.

Harbhajan Singh is also not behind

India’s legendary spinner Harbhajan Singh is in fourth place. In his almost 20 year long career, he also scored two Test centuries, but was out for duck 37 times. Harbhajan led India to victory many times with the ball, but many times he got out early with the bat.

Jasprit Bumrah’s name also included

Current fast bowler Jasprit Bumrah is at number five. He has scored a duck 35 times so far. Bumrah is known for his bowling. Batsmen tremble with his yorker balls, but when it comes to the bat, his name has also been included in this ‘duck club’.

Most Ducks In International Cricket By Indian Players: Virat Kohli was out on zero in both consecutive matches in the ongoing ODI series against Australia. Virat has reached second place in the list of players who have been out for most number of ducks (zero) for India in international cricket. This has become a shameful record in his career, which is a stain on his brilliant career.

For the first time, Virat was out on zero in two consecutive ODIs.

In the second ODI match against Australia in Adelaide on 23 October 2025, Virat Kohli could face only 4 balls and was out on zero. This was Virat’s second consecutive duck in this series, because in the first ODI played in Perth, he was out after scoring zero in 8 balls. This is the first time in Kohli’s 17-year-old ODI career that he has been out on zero in two consecutive matches. Virat has had a great performance in the Adelaide ground, but his bat did not work in this match and Australian fast bowler Xavier Bartlett gave him out lbw.
