They need only 46 runs for this. As soon as he scored so much runs, he will break the record of Chris Gayle, who remains the top run scorer of this tournament history with 791 runs.

He crossed the 8000-run mark in the run-day in ODIs. He took 159 innings to achieve this achievement, which led to the second batsman to score so many runs chasing the target in 50 overs format. Chasing the target, Sachin Tendulkar is in the first place in terms of scoring the most runs. Master Blaster has scored 8720 runs in 232 innings. Rohit Sharma is third in this list with 6115 runs. Kohli is the fastest batsman to score 8000 runs during the run-day.
