Colombo, Sep 12: After completing the milestone of 10,000 ODI, India skipper Rohit Sharma added another feather to his cap – in partnership with his predecessor Virat Kohli. The two Indian batting heroes became the fastest non-opening (Rohit opens the inning) duo in ODI cricket to complete 5,000 runs as a pair during the Asia Cup Super 4 match against Sri Lanka on Tuesday.
The duo surpassed the legendary West Indies pair of Gordon Greenidge and Desmond Haynes, who held the previous record to reach 5000 ODI runs in 97 innings.
The Rohit and Virat duo achieved this feat in the 86th ODI innings. (IANS)
