Indian cricket star Virat Kohli is on the verge of achieving another milestone in his illustrious career. If he scores six runs in the third and final T20I against Afghanistan on Wednesday, he will become the first Indian batter to complete 12,000 runs in the T20 format, which includes T20 internationals and List A games. Currently, Kohli has 11,994 runs in 375 matches. Only three batters have achieved this feat so far, with West Indies legend Chris Gayle leading the pack with 14,562 runs in 463 T20 matches. Shoaib Malik and Kieron Pollard follow with 12,993 and 12,430 runs respectively. Kohli recently made a comeback to T20Is after a 14-month hiatus and played a crucial cameo of 29 runs in the second T20I against Afghanistan.
