After scoring 80 in the semi-final match against New Zealand at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, Kohli scored 674 runs, thus surpassing Sachin Tendulkar's 673 runs in the 2003 ODI World Cup in South Africa.

The former Indian captain achieved the feat in just 10 innings, one less than the 11 innings achieved by Tendulkar 20 years ago. Former Australian opener Matthew Hayden is at third place in this illustrious list, having scored 659 runs during the title win in the Caribbean in 2007.
