#4 Chris Gayle

With an international career spanning over 19 years and the kind of player he is, Gayle should have breached the 10,000 mark a lot earlier. The fallouts with the cricket board haven't helped his cause. Nonetheless, the universe boss has just helped his team qualify for the 2019 ICC World Cup. He will surely be looking to set the record straight. He needs another 425 runs to enter the 10,000 club.
Of late, he has been a lot of T20 cricket but with the world cup around the corner, we might see him playing more ODI cricket for the West Indies. If he plays for his national team, he surely will be there amongst the greats in the elite club.
