India's meeting with Pakistan in the Champions Trophy 2025 will be special for multiple reasons. Apart from the usual bragging rights at stake, the match will be extra special for the two legendary Indian cricketers, Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. While the India vs Pakistan match on 23 February is a do-or-die fixture for Mohammad Rizwan's side, after their loss to New Zealand, the Men in Blue will look to achieve huge milestones. Virat Kohli is just 15 runs away from achieving the 14,000 ODI runs mark, whereas Indian captain Rohit Sharma can pick up his 100th win in international cricket (excluding Super Over wins). Virat Kohli looks to scale mountain 14k Kohli needs just 15 runs to surpass the legendary 14,000 ODI runs mark. Virat can become the fastest to achieve the feat, surpassing icons like Sachin Tendulkar and Kumar Sangakkara. Apart from Virat, only Tendulkar and Sangakkara have scored more than 14,000 runs in ODIs. Virat Kohli, 36, can also surpass Sangakkara to become the second-highest all-time run-scorer in ODI cricket history. The Sri Lankan legend retired with 14,234 ODI runs to his name, while Virat is inching closer to Sanga's tally. Kohli needs 246 runs to surpass the former Sri Lankan captain.
