Tendulkar Dethroned! Kohli Becomes Ultimate ODI Chase Master

Virat Kohli has established himself as the premier run-scorer in ODI chases, surpassing the previous benchmark set by Sachin Tendulkar. During a recent victory against New Zealand in Auckland, Kohli contributed 74 runs off 51 deliveries to reach a career total of 8,741 runs in second-innings scenarios.

This performance also saw him become the first player to accumulate 13,000 ODI runs while batting at the third position. Furthermore, Kohli matched Ricky Ponting's record of 1,971 total runs against the New Zealand side.

Across his 10 ODI appearances this calendar year, the veteran has maintained an average of 69.55, totaling 626 runs with six scores of fifty or more.
