Despite early struggles in Test cricket, he emerged as a dominant force in ODIs, breaking records and making substantial contributions in tournaments.

His standout performances, including being the leading run-scorer in the 2019 edition and surpassing cricket legends like Sachin Tendulkar and Chris Gayle in various records, have solidified his stature as one of cricket's finest.
