How can Virat Kohli not feature in a list when we talk about milestones? The current Indian captain has been in sublime form right from the start of 2018. Having raked up runs as if it is a simple task for him, Kohli has been completely on a different level as compared to his peers.

There have been speculations about Kohli being rested for the Asia Cup 2018. Unquestionably, Virat's workloads in the recent past have been soaring high, and it might take a toll on Virat Kohli's fitness. However, considering the severity of the tournament, India might not rest Virat if he is perfectly fit to play the tournament.

Nevertheless, Kohli is close to achieving yet another milestone in ODIs. He just needs 221 runs more to become the latest member of the 10,000-run club in ODIs.

Amassing these runs, Kohli will become the fastest ever player in the history of ODI cricket to surpass 10,000 runs. Moreover, he will become the second player after MS Dhoni to complete 10,000 runs in international cricket with an average of more than 50.
