Virat Kohli on the verge of breaking Sachin Tendulkar’s record

163

On a record-breaking spree in international cricket for a long time now, Indian captain Virat Kohli has set himself up on the verge of bettering another feat when he comes out to bat in the second ODI against the West Indies in Hyderabad.

In the first match against the Caribbean side, Kohli notched up his 36th ODI hundred as he stroked his way to a classy 140 and now, he stands just 81 runs short of reaching the 10,000-run mark in ODI cricket.

However, that is just one half of the story. Kohli also has the chance to better a feat achieved by none other than the legendary Sachin Tendulkar. The iconic right-hander had achieved the 10,000-run mark in 259 innings–the fastest in international cricket– while Kohli, who requires less than a hundred runs to touch that mark, has played 204 innings so far.

Sachin however still holds the record for the most number of runs against the West Indies with 1,573 runs in 39 meetings. Kohli stands at the second place with 1,387 runs in 27 matches with the great Rahul Dravid following with 1,348 runs in 40 ODIs.

The 29-year old right-hander has been in sublime form across formats all throughout this year and has scored 889 runs in ODIs alone. He takes the fourth place in the list of leading run-getters in ODIs this year with England’s Johnny Bairstow topping the charts with 1,025 runs.

But Kohli has a superior average to that of Bairstow. The Indian skipper has an impressive average of 127 in comparison to Bairstow’s 46.59.

Kohli would look to carry on from where he left in the second ODI as well which is to be played on October 24 in Hyderabad. India currently lead the five-match affair 1-0.
