PUNE: Virat Kohli has become the fastest skipper in the history of cricket to record 11,000 international runs.

He achieved the feat against Sri Lanka in the third and final T20I against Sri Lanka at Pune on Friday.

Kohli broke former Australia cricketer Ricky Ponting's record in his 169th international match as the captain.

He is the sixth captain to achieve the feat after Ponting, Graeme Smith (South Africa), Stephen Fleming (New Zealand), MS Dhoni and Allan Border (Australia).

The 31-year-old is also the fastest batsman to reach 11,000 runs in the 50-over format.

He is also the only cricketer to average above 50 in all three formats of the game.

Kohli is the second Indian skipper after Dhoni to complete 11,000 runs in international cricket.

The Indian skipper is also the leading run-scorer in T20Is. He achieved this feat in the second T20I against Sri Lanka.

India defeated Sri Lanka 2-0 in the three-match T20I series. The final T20I was won by the Men in Blue by 78 runs.

The team will next take on Australia in a three-match ODI series. The first match will be played on January 14 at the Wankhede Stadium.

India captain Virat Kohli has become the fastest batsman ever to score 11,000 one-day international runs.

Kohli couldn’t have asked for a bigger stage on which to reach the milestone, bringing it up during his team’s blockbuster World Cup group stage match against Pakistan at Old Trafford.

Coming to the crease with his team already in an enviable position at 1-136 after a strong start from openers Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul – having been sent in to bat by Pakistan captain Safaraz Ahmed – Kohli required 57 runs to break Sachin Tendulkar's record.

 

India prove too strong for Pakistan

The Indian captain didn’t disappoint, bringing up a chanceless half-century in 51 deliveries before scoring that 57th run in the 45th over of India’s innings.

He reached the 11,000-run mark in just 222 innings, smashing Tendulkar’s previous record of 276 innings.

It comes less than a year after Kohli brought up 10,000 runs, a milestone he reached against the West Indies last October.

Kohli is the ninth batsman overall to reach 11,000 runs in the history of one-day cricket, already has 41 ODI centuries to his name and at just 30 years of age, is on track to surpass Tendulkar's all-time ODI run-scoring record of 18,426.

Kohli was unbeaten on 71 in the 47th over of India’s innings when rain in Manchester stopped play. He returned when the skies cleared but only added another six runs before walking when he appeared to have edged behind a Mohammad Amir delivery, although replays suggested he had missed the ball. 

Test cricket is truly a test of the stamina and skills of a cricketer. Thus, the ones who have got scores as high as 11,000 and above deserve a special mention for the fans of the game. And on that note, we have brought you a list of names who have crossed the 11,000 in Test cricket.

1. Kumar Chokshanada Sangakkara (Sri Lanka)

  • Time taken: 13y 199d
  • Match: 122
  • Innings: 208

KC Sangakkara is one of the finest cricketers to have graced Sri Lankan cricket. In fact, he was one of the cornerstones of Sri Lankan cricket for nearly fifteen years. He also happens to be the player with the fastest 11000 runs in Test. Sangakkara achieved this feat against Bangladesh in ZA Chowdhury Stadium, Chattogram. He is also an ICC Hall of Fame inductee and a proficient cricket commentator. It took him thirteen years of playing Test cricket to reach the milestone of 11,000 runs.

2. Brian Charles Lara (West Indies)

  • Time taken: 14y 354d
  • Match: 121
  • Innings: 213

Brian Charles Lara is truly a legend in not just West Indies cricket, but also the cricketing world in general. He became the captain of Trinidad and Tobago at the young age of twenty, and since that day there was no looking back. In a major part of his career, he was the main man that the team depended on. It took him fourteen years to reach the score of 11,000 runs. He finally reached the milestone against Australia in the Oval.

3. Ricky Ponting (Australia)

  • Time taken: 13y 212d
  • Match: 132
  • Innings: 222

With three World Cup titles (as a captain), a few Champions Trophies, and the top Test ranking, Ricky Ponting had pretty much done it all as the captain of the Australian cricket team. Besides his fiery turnout as a skipper, Ponting had an amazing stroke-play that helped him gather runs and destroy opposition bowlers like no other. Ponting achieved this feat against England in Sophia Gardens, Cardiff. It was his 132-Test match and 222 innings where he finally reached the glorious milestone.

4. Sachin Ramesh Tendulkar (India)

  • Time taken: 17y 254d
  • Match: 139
  • Innings: 223

In a career that spanned 24 years, Sachin Tendulkar has earned several records. He holds the record for the highest Test runs scored in a career (15,920) and the highest number of Test hundreds (51). Through his skills and performance, he made such a place for himself in cricket history that his comparison is always drawn with Don Bradman. During the seventeenth year of his illustrious career, he hit the milestone of 11,000 runs. It happened during a match against England at Trent Bridge, Nottingham.

5. Rahul Sharad Dravid (India)

  • Time taken: 13y 149d
  • Match: 135
  • Innings: 234

Rahul Dravid has gone from being the captain of the Indian team to the coach of it. And going by his current records, he is excelling in the latter as much as he did in the former. He was a prolific Test player in his time, which also earned him the nickname of ‘The Wall.’ He has several Test records to his name in his long and illustrious career. It took him thirteen years to reach the score of 11,000 runs.

6. Jacques Henry Kallis (South Africa)

  • Time taken: 14y 186d
  • Match: 139
  • Innings: 234

Jacques Henry Kallis is one of the greatest cricketers of all time and one of the finest in South Africa. In fact, he has always been the kind of cricketer that his team depended on to win the matches and take them out of a tough spot. And Kallis has done both these jobs brilliantly on more occasions than one. It was his 139-Test match and 234 innings where he finally reached the glorious milestone against West Indies at Warner Park, St Kitts.

7. Mahela de Silva Jayawardene (Sri Lanka)

  • Time taken: 16y 167d
  • Match: 141
  • Innings: 237

Along with Sanath Jayasuriya, Mahela de Silva Jayawardene is known as the most successful captain of Sri Lanka. He has led the team from the front on multiple occasions, and still did not let the pressure get to him as he scored equally well as a batsman. During the sixteenth year of his illustrious career, he hit the milestone of 11,000 runs against Pakistan at Sharjah.

8. Alastair Nathan Cook (England)

  • Time taken: 10y 290d
  • Match: 140
  • Innings: 252

Cook’s capacity to score huge runs in Test cricket is the testimony to his brilliance, skills, and patience as a player. In fact, he holds the record of having more Test hundreds than all other English batsmen to have graced the crease. This excellent creator did not need more than ten years to reach the milestone of 11,000 runs. In fact, going by his performance from the beginning of his Test career, it was only a matter of time for him.
