Virat Kohli shattered Sachin Tendulkar’s recordVirat Kohli breaks Sachin Tendulkar’s record in World Cup, gets 50th ODI hundred for the most runs scored in an ODI World Cup edition. Virat Kohli surpassed the World Cup 2003 record of 673 runs.

In the 34th over of the match, Virat Kohli almost reached his goal of 79 runs in the semi-final. India made a quick start thanks to fast bowling from Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill, scoring 84 runs in the first 10 overs, giving Kohli the freedom to take his time. Tim Southee removed Rohit from the game for 47 runs off of 29 balls, but Kohli made sure that he and Gill continued to knock the ball around to keep the scorers occupied.

Virat Kohli broke Sachin Tendulkar’s record for the most fifty-plus scores in a World Cup edition on Wednesday in the semi-finals with his eighth-best performance. Additionally, Kohli surpassed Ricky Ponting’s record of 13,704 runs in the ODI run-getters all-time list.

Notably, during his match-winning century against South Africa earlier in the World Cup in Kolkata, Virat Kohli tied Sachin Tendulkar’s record for the most ODI hundreds with 49, and it appeared that Kohli would reach No. 50.

With 594 runs, including two hundreds and five fifties, Kohli led the league run-scoring chart.
