Virat Kohli passes 15,000 ODI runs as India beat West Indies

Virat Kohli became only the second batter after Sachin Tendulkar to reach 15,000 runs in men's ODI cricket, achieving this milestone with an unbeaten century as India defeated the West Indies by 8 wickets on September 27, 2026, in Thiruvananthapuram. Kohli scored 139 not out from 88 balls, with Shubman Gill adding 110, helping India chase down 296 with 50 balls remaining. This achievement comes shortly after Kohli announced he will retire from international cricket after the 2027 World Cup, having already retired from T20 and Test formats.
