NEW DELHI: Star Indian opener Rohit Sharma reached 10,000 ODI runs against Sri Lanka in the Asia Cup Super Four clash on Tuesday.

India's highest run-scorer in ODIs and overall too. In 463 matches, he scored 18,426 runs at an average of 44.83, with a strike rate of above 86. He has the best score of 200*. Sachin has a total of 49 centuries and 96 fifties in ODIs.
Virat Kohli
With a still lot in his tank, Virat is on the way of becoming perhaps the best ODI batter ever. He is India's second-highest and overall fifth-highest run-scorer in ODIs. He has 13,027 runs in 279 ODIs at an average of 57.38, with 47 centuries and 65 fifties. His best score is 183.

MS Dhoni
This swashbuckling wicketkeeper-batter was India's middle-order staple for years. In 347 matches and 294 innings, he scored 10,599 runs at an average of 50.23 and a strike rate of 87.13. He scored nine centuries and 73 fifties in his career, with the best score of 183*
