Rohit Sharma reaches 12,000 men's ODI runs
ICC confirms Rohit Sharma reached the milestone during India's second ODI against West Indies in Guwahati.
Rohit Sharma has passed 12,000 runs in men's One Day Internationals, according to an ICC report published on September 30. The milestone came during India's second ODI against West Indies in Guwahati. The ICC says he reached it with a single off Roston Chase in the 16th over.
The ICC identifies Rohit as the third Indian to reach the mark, after Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli, and the seventh batter overall. That places the achievement in a career context rather than describing only his contribution to this innings.
For readers following the live game, a career milestone and a match result answer different questions. Crossing 12,000 does not decide the chase. The target, wickets and deliveries remaining still describe the immediate contest. This article records the confirmed milestone and does not claim a final result from a match still being followed.
The ICC's list of the other batters in the club includes Ricky Ponting, Kumar Sangakkara, Sanath Jayasuriya and Mahela Jayawardena alongside Tendulkar and Kohli. It is a men's ODI aggregate, not a total across Tests, T20Is and domestic cricket.
