Virat Kohli took the plaudits for becoming the fastest to reach 14,000 runs in one-day internationals (ODIs) on Sunday but he was also proud of his work in the field after the 36-year-old broke a national record that stood for more than two decades.
Virat Kohli said his plan was to attack the pacers and take less risk against the spinners in the high-pressure Champions Trophy clash against Pakistan on Sunday and having steered the team home with a sparkling hundred, his 36-year-old body is happy to get a week-long break before the next game. India's six-wicket win against arch-rivals has almost sealed a semifinal spot for the side and all but knocked the hosts out of the tournament. Kohli got majority of his runs from running the quick singles and doubles as he collected only seven fours in his 100 not out off 111 balls.

Indian cricket team star batter Virat Kohli shattered Sachin Tendulkar's sensational record to achieve an unique feat during the Champions Trophy 2025 encounter against Pakistan in Dubai on Sunday. Virat became the fastest batter in the history of ODI cricket to score 14,000 runs as he reached the milestone is just 287 innings. Previously, Sachin held the record as the legendary India batter reached the 14,000 run-mark in 350 innings. Overall, Sri Lanka's Kumar Sangakkara is the only other batter to score more than 14,000 ODI runs and he reached the milestone in 378 innings.
As if the Champions Trophy 2025 game between India and Pakistan didn't have enough high stakes, another factor has now been added to it, particularly for the latter. Hosts Pakistan - who are travelling to Dubai to take on India - need to win to keep their qualification hopes alive in the tournament. Now, they have seemingly been given another source of motivation. Kamran Tessori, governor of the Pakistan province of Sindh, has promised an enormous cash prize to the players should they beat India.
One of the finest fielders Indian cricket has produced, Yuvraj Singh might be 43 years old but age is yet to catch up on him as far as his excellence in the field is concerned. During a match between India Masters and Sri Lanka Masters on Saturday, Yuvraj grabbed an absolute screamer on the boundary rope. The catch left the cricket world stunned as fans found it tough to comprehend Yuvraj's athleticism even at this age. The video of the catch has since gone viral on social media.
Josh Inglis played the innings of his life, smashing his maiden ODI century (120 not out) to overshadow Ben Duckett's masterclass 165, as world champions Australia pulled off a record chase to beat England by five wickets in their Champions Trophy Group B opener in Lahore on Saturday. The five-wicket win marked the highest-ever chase by any team at an ICC white-ball tournament, the previous best being Pakistan's 345 against Sri Lanka at the 2023 men's World Cup. Duckett's career-best knock from 143 balls that had 17 boundaries and three sixes had propelled England to 351/8 -- the highest total of the Champions Trophy, surpassing New Zealand's 347/4 against USA way back in 2004.
