Visakhapatnam is set to host the highly anticipated third and final ODI between India and South Africa on December 6, 2025, and all eyes are on Virat Kohli. The star batter has been in sublime form, notching up centuries in the first two matches of the series. As the teams head to the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, Kohli stands on the verge of achieving some significant milestones.

Kohli has a remarkable ODI record at the ACA-VDCA Stadium in Visakhapatnam. In 7 matches, he has amassed 587 runs at an impressive average of 97.83, including three centuries and a highest score of 157*. He is already the highest run-scorer at this venue in the 50-over format, ahead of Rohit Sharma (355 runs).

Another century in Visakhapatnam would not only further cement his place as the top scorer at the ground but also add to his already illustrious career milestones.

Here's a look at the records Virat Kohli could potentially break in the 3rd ODI:

• Most ODI Centuries Against South Africa: Kohli recently surpassed Sachin Tendulkar for the most ODI centuries against South Africa. He currently has seven centuries against the Proteas. Another century would extend his lead and further solidify his dominance against this opposition.
• Most International Centuries: Kohli has already surpassed Sachin Tendulkar with the most centuries in any single format.
• 500+ ODI Runs at Most Venues: During the first ODI against South Africa in Ranchi, Kohli achieved a remarkable feat by becoming the first player to score over 500 ODI runs at six different stadiums. These venues include Ranchi, Visakhapatnam, Pune, Mirpur, Colombo (R. Premadasa), and Trinidad. A significant score in the third ODI would further enhance his record at this venue.

The ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium in Visakhapatnam has generally been a good batting surface. The highest ODI total at this venue is 387/5, scored by India against the West Indies in 2019. Given the strong batting performances by both India and South Africa in this series, another high-scoring encounter is expected.

India has a good track record at the ACA-VDCA Cricket Stadium, having won 7 out of the 10 ODIs played here. However, it is worth noting that they lost to South Africa in the second ODI in Raipur, ending their unbeaten run at that venue.

With Virat Kohli in exceptional form and the series on the line, fans can anticipate a thrilling contest in Visakhapatnam. Kohli's potential record-breaking feats add another layer of excitement to this crucial match.
