9,000 ODI runs for the master

With so much cricket ahead of him you just wonder how many more he can get.

 

Also breaks the record for most runs by a captain in a calendar year.

Will end career with 16k runs and 50+ 100s.

[Sgattick10]

Will easily break Sachin's every record.

he can double his score as well .. 2 good years like this make it easier

Most runs is still difficult. He is halfway through. He is scoring at 1000 runs per year rate. To break that reacord, he will have to play in same way for next 8-10 years which is very difficult. He is almost 29. Going at same rate till 38-39, highly unlikely.

India don't play many ODIs anymore. Earlier playing 30 ODIs in a year was common. I think Kohli has played 30+ ODIs once or twice in career.

1.5k++ runs for 2 years .. and 1k for 5/6 years

He is doing 1300-1400 currently.

 

If he goes at the even 1200, you are looking at 6-7 years. Given his fitness it is likely that he will play till 36-37. So not very unlikely as well. Tough.

The number of one-day runs Kohli end ups with at the end of career is about as relevant as the number of games Federer has won over his career.

and i mean games in the tennis sense.

These are his peak years and you're expecting him to continue his peak years even during haydays. 1200 is what he has got twice only I think.

 

Like I mentioned BCCI don't organise many ODIs anymore. Look at players with most calendar runs. All are 1990s, early 2000s records with 35-40 matches each by those players.

 

If Kohli plays another 220-230 matches, then he can surely break this record, but at this rate playing 200 matches will take a decade.

Valid points. Not very unlikely is what I'm saying. 

 

With the ODI championship into the picture now,teams might start playing more ODIs than what they are playing currently.

There should have been 5 odis and 1 t20 in this series as well as next sl series.

 

Then there is t20 tri series in sl after sa tour...too much t20 in my opinion.

 

8-10 T20 a year is enough.

 

12 test 25-30 odis and 10 t20 a year is ideal for me.
