<p>India captain <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/sports/cricket/article/champions-trophy-2025-for-starters-india-eye-bangla-dash-23486785" target="_blank" rel="none noopener"><strong>Rohit Sharma</strong></a> on Thursday became the second fastest batter after compatriot Virat Kohli to complete 11,000 runs in One-day Internationals during their Champions Trophy clash against Bangladesh.</p>
<p>Rohit is only the fourth Indian and 10th batter overall to reach the mark in the 50-over format.</p>
<p>The skipper achieved the feat in the fourth over of India's chase of 229 in their Group A match when he hit Mustafizur Rahman over mid-on for a boundary.</p>
<p>The seasoned opener reached the mark in his 270th game, and is the second fastest behind Kohli to cross 11,000 runs in terms of innings.</p>
<p>Kohli had crossed the 11,000-run mark in 222 innings while Rohit has brought up that many runs in 261 innings. In this list, they are followed by the legendary <a href="https://www.mid-day.com/author-detail/sachin-tendulkar-265-all/?authordetail-breakingnews" target="_blank" rel="none noopener"><strong>Sachin Tendulkar</strong></a> (276 innings), Ricky Ponting (286) and Sourav Ganguly (288).</p>
<p>Rohit is now placed behind former India captain Ganguly (11,363 runs) in the list of overall highest run-scorers in ODI cricket, with Tendulkar cemented firmly at the top position with 18,246 runs in 463 matches.</p>
<p>Kohli, who has 13,963 runs in his 299 ODIs, entered this game only 37 short of becoming only the third player in the history to make 14,000 runs in 50-overs cricket.</p>
<p>In terms of most ODI runs, former Sri Lanka captain Kumar Sangakkara is placed second with 14,234 runs in 404 matches.</p>
<p>One of the most successful batters in the format at the top of the order, Rohit is also second in the list of hitting most sixes with 338 hits over the fence behind Pakistan's Shahid Afridi (351).</p>
<p>Rohit averages nearly 50 in the format with 32 centuries and 52 half-centuries.</p>
<p>In the list of highest run-scorers, Rohit is followed by former captains Rahul Dravid (10,889 runs) and MS Dhoni (10,773), with India having as many as six batters in an overall list of 15 batters to have crossed the coveted 10,000-run mark in ODI cricket.</p>
