Virat Kohli shatters Sachin Tendulkar's record to become fastest 10,000 runs scorer in ODI

India Blooms News Service | @indiablooms | Oct 24, 2018, at 06:49 pm

New Delhi, Oct 24 (IBNS): Indian skipper Virat Kohli continued his strong performance on the cricket field and shattered another record during the second ODI match against West Indies on Wednesday.

Kohli smashed Sachin Tendulkar's record and became the fastest man to score 10,000 runs in ODIs.

The Indian skipper achieved the feat in his 205th innings.

Tendulkar had created the record in his 259th innings in 2001.

Kohli reached the mark with a single off spinner Ashley Nurse in the match.

He became the 13th batsman internationally to reach the milestone and the fifth Indian batsman to do so.

Kohli made his ODI debut in 2008 against Sri Lanka.

Kohli remained unbeaten at 157 runs in the innings. It was his 37th ODI century.
