The India captain broke the record of compatriot and batting great Sachin Tendulkar, who had reached the milestone in 259 innings. Tendulkar completed 10,000 ODI runs in 2001. He took 259 innings to reach the milestone at the age of 27 on March 31, 2001, in an ODI vs Australia in Indore, just 24 days shy of his 28th birthday. Kohli has reached the mark in just 205 innings. The Indian captain is 29.
