KATHMANDU: Virat Kohli broke Sachin Tendulkar’s record to become the fastest cricketer to reach 11,000 runs in one-day internationals. India captain  Kohli broke a world record in the ICC World Cup 2019 match against Pakistan at Old Trafford, Manchester on Sunday. Kohli became the fastest to reach 11000 ODI runs. Kohli got to the mark with a boundary off Hassan Ali’s ball in the 45th over. Kohli achieved the milestone in just 222 innings.
