At the moment, possibly. But 'ever' I don't think so. Candidates for me would be Richards and some lad from Mumbai you may be rather familiar with

Kohli is the best ODI player at present and his records speak for himself. Not talking about Strike rate and Avg only but due to sheer disdane he chased those improbable targets. Don't go by his test failures...he is the best ODI batsman easily.

You are using statistics to rate batsmen. Personally, my favorite ODI batsman ever is Viv Richards. But if you must use statistics, then there is no way anyone can beat SRT.

Best ever in ODIs: No 1 - Viv No 2 - Sachin
Arguable. It is true that Viv has higher average and SR (not by far though although those numbers were mind blowing for his time) Sachin has hit a lot more 100s. Viv has just 11 hundreds in 187 games. At the same rate he would have had 27-28 hundreds had he played as many games as Tendulkar, Tendulkar has 21-22 more.

His impact was crazy. Both are GOATs in ODI but Viv is greater than Sachin in my view. Even if you take neutral fans' views, its Viv all the way.

Actually I disagree. I have only heard this from most Pak fans and some Indian fans. Not even West Indians themselves consider him above Sachin though they do say he is an ODI great. So I do not think most neutrals put Viv ahead, Aussie put Sachin ahead, mostly because he performed against them in ODIs. Anyways, this one is too close to call so I would be happy with either way
