Terrific achievement to have played that many number of games. It is a reflection of lot of things – ability, fitness, adaptability, desire, hunger, passion about the game. It also speaks alot about longevity. If you slip up on any one of these areas you probably won’t have as long a career as Virat has and achieved some of the milestone that he has. To play all the three formats and adapt to them, maintain high standards in each of them. He has been thrown so many challenges, he has had to display different kinds of skills
