**Introduction**

When the Indian cricket team takes to the field against Bangladesh in Pune on Thursday, it's not just another match in the ongoing ICC Men's ODI World Cup 2023. This game carries a special significance as the star Indian batsman, Virat Kohli, is on the brink of rewriting cricket history. The 34-year-old right-handed batter is all set to challenge a record previously held by the legendary Sachin Tendulkar during his illustrious career. With just 77 runs away, Kohli has the opportunity to become the fastest cricketer ever to reach 26,000 runs in international cricket.

**The Milestone on the  Horizon**

As of now, Virat Kohli boasts an impressive tally of 25,923 runs, accumulated over 566 innings in 510 matches played across formats. Achieving this remarkable feat would not only cement his status as one of the all-time greats but also place him in a league of his own. What's even more astonishing is that even if he takes the next 34 innings to score those 77 runs, he will still become the fastest batter to reach 26,000 runs in international cricket.

To put this into perspective, only three cricketers in history have surpassed the 26,000-run mark in international cricket. Tendulkar, the Little Master, leads the pack with an astonishing 34,357 runs in 782 innings across 664 matches. He is closely followed by Sri Lanka's Kumar Sangakkara, who notched up 28,016 runs in 666 innings and Australia's Ricky Ponting, who amassed 27,483 runs in 668 innings. 

**Virat's Pursuit of Greatness**

Virat Kohli's journey to the summit of international cricket has seen him go toe-to-toe with some of the finest the game has ever seen. As of now, he ranks fifth among the leading run-scorers, with Mahela Jayawardene, former Sri Lankan skipper, just ahead of him. Jayawardene has an impressive tally of 25,957 runs, earned in 725 innings of 652 matches played across formats.

In addition to the quest for 26,000 runs, Kohli has another target in his sights - overtaking Mahela Jayawardene to become the fourth-highest run-getter in international cricket. To achieve this, he needs just 35 runs to surpass Jayawardene's total runs.
