Kohli has 5980 in 118 innings.

If Don and Sobers played more games in their prime, they may have had even better stats

It's just amazing how great bradman was. During his time when other batsman hardly averaged 50 he was like on other planet. Kohli & smith deserves way more respect!

i have no doubts that sehwag took least number of balls to reach 6k runs
