On Thursday, Indian captain Virat Kohli achieved another record by becoming the fastest to score 2,000 runs during the fourth ODI against Australia in Bengaluru.
Kohli achieved the feat in his 36th match as skipper. The record was previously held by his good friend AB de Villiers, who had achieved the feat in his 41st innings as skipper.

Kohli was, however, dismissed on 21 while playing a ball back onto his stumps and India were at 149/3 while chasing 330.
Earlier, Australia reached the mammoth total, thanks to a century by David Warner, who was also playing his 100th ODI. He was also the first Australian to achieve this feat.
