Kohli Passes Tendulkar for Most Runs in ODI Chases

Virat Kohli has gone past Sachin Tendulkar to become the highest run-scorer in ODI run chases, reaching the mark during India's first ODI against New Zealand at Eden Park in Auckland.

Kohli needed 54 runs before the match to pass Tendulkar's tally of 8,720 runs, and his 74 off 51 balls took his own tally to 8,741 runs in 169 innings while batting second.

Kohli's knock helped India beat New Zealand by five wickets under the revised target to take a 1-0 lead in the five-match series.
