The highest run-scorer in T20 World Cup history is India’s Virat Kohli, who hit 16 against Bangladesh on Wednesday in Adelaide.
In his 23rd T20 World Cup innings, Kohli outscored Mahela Jayawardene, a former captain of Sri Lanka, by 1,016 runs. After 31 innings, Jayawardene set a record.
After making his debut in the shorter format in 2010, the former captain is currently participating in his 113th T20 international match for India.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) tweeted:
“Yet another milestone unlocked”.
