Fastest 1000 Runs in ODI

The ODI format comes with a totally different set of challenges as compared to the other two formats of cricket. Because it also gives time to settle down as test cricket for the batters. But once a batter is comfortable, it also gives them a challenge to score runs quickly. Thus, this format is still one of the best in the game.

Over the years, the world has seen a lot of records broken in ODI cricket. But once a batsman makes his ODI debut, his first aim is to score plenty of runs for his country. Some have success in doing so, while some fail badly. In this article, we will discuss one such ODI record, which is the fastest 1000 runs in ODI cricket. So let’s check the fastest batter to achieve this milestone.
