The news reports that Virat Kohli is on the verge of a historic milestone in One Day International (ODI) cricket:
The Milestone: Virat Kohli is just 59 runs away from reaching 15,000 career runs in ODIs.
Following Sachin Tendulkar: Upon scoring these 59 runs, Kohli will become only the second batter in ODI cricket history to cross the 15,000-run mark, joining Sachin Tendulkar (who holds the all-time record with 18,426 runs).
Breaking the Record for Fastest to 15,000 Runs: In reaching this mark, Kohli will comfortably shatter Sachin Tendulkar’s record to become the fastest player in history to achieve 15,000 ODI runs. Tendulkar reached the figure in his 377th innings (386th match), whereas Kohli is reaching it in just over 300 innings.
Additional Records on the Horizon: Ahead of India’s ODI series, Kohli is also within touching distance of other milestones held by Tendulkar, including closing the gap on Tendulkar’s record for the most ODI runs scored on home soil and chasing his record of 60 List-A centuries.
