Virat Kohli just added another feather to his cap in his career as he surpassed 20,000 International runs today. In the game against West Indies, the Indian skipper achieved this feat thus becoming the fastest player to do this. Virat Kohli took 417 innings to reach this honourable mark whereas legends Brian Lara and Sachin Tendulkar took 453 appearances for the same.
5 Reasons why Virat Kohli is the best ODI batsman at the moment
Kohli is also maintaining his prime form today as he amassed his fourth half-century of the tournament and 53rd overall. The side will want him to stay at the crease to put up a higher score on the board. Prior to his arrival at the crease, Rohit Sharma got out to a controversial call by the third umpire, who claimed that the ball hit the bat and not the pads.
Since his debut, Kohli has been amassing a lot of records in all the formats and with this feat he is proving he is one of the most reliable players in the world. It is worth noting that he took just 5 months to reach another 1000 runs as he passed the 19,000 run mark this January.
Several experts and fans are congratulating him on this remarkable achievement and can Kohli excite them with a big one today?
