The Test series between India and West Indies was completely one-sided. However, there is no doubt about the fact that it was also a series of individual records. Ravichandran Ashwin, Yashasvi Jaiswal, Virat Kohli, and Rohit Sharma, all of them were able to achieve some milestones in that series. Now in the upcoming ODI series, there is a big milestone waiting for the captain Rohit Sharma.

How far is Rohit Sharma from the 10,000 ODI runs?
Rohit Sharma is only 175 runs away from the milestone of 10,000 ODI runs. For one of the greatest batsmen of this format of the game, it is not going to be very tough to get these runs in a 3 match series. However, his recent form has been under the scanner. But due to his Test century in the last series, fans are expecting a big score from Rohit Sharma.
Other Indian batters with over 10,000 ODI runs
Indian Cricket has always been blessed with some great batters. Rohit is one of those, and he is not going to be the first one to achieve this milestone.
- Sachin Tendulkar – 18,426 runs
- Virat Kohli – 12898 runs
- Sourav Ganguly – 11363 runs
- Rahul Dravid – 10, 889 runs
- MS Dhoni – 10,773 runs
To join the 10,000 runs club, Rohit Sharma needs to ensure that he scores those 175 runs that are required. There is no one in the Indian team among the active players, who might achieve this goal in the near future. This shows that players like Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli need to play for India for a few more years until their replacements are found in the team.
So, let’s wait for the first ODI match to start. There is no doubt that West Indies is having some plan to surprise the current Indian team.
