Aman Mokhade equals world record, becomes fastest Indian to score 1,000 runs in List A cricket

Vidarbha opener Aman Mokhade has become the joint fastest player to reach 1,000 runs in List A cricket; he reached the milestone in just 16 innings. The 24-year-old has also equalled the record of South Africa's great Graeme Pollock, who has also achieved the same milestone in the same number of innings.

Mokhade becomes fastest to reach the milestone

Mokhade is now the quickest Indian to reach the milestone, going past Devdutt Padikkal and Abhinav Mukund, who both took 17 innings. He reached the milestone during Vidarbha’s Vijay Hazare Trophy semi-final against Karnataka. The stylish batter played a superb knock of 138 from 122 balls in the semis against Karnataka. His innings helped Vidarbha cruise to a comfortable six-wicket win at the Centre of Excellence in Bengaluru.

In the first leg of the 2025–26 Ranji Trophy, he scored 577 runs in just seven innings at an impressive average of over 96, including three centuries and a half-century.

Mokhade also finished as Vidarbha’s top run-scorer in the Syed Mushtaq Ali Trophy earlier in the season and has carried that form into the Vijay Hazare Trophy. He is currently the leading run-scorer of the domestic fifty-over tournament with 781 runs in nine innings, averaging close to 98. His tally includes five hundreds and one fifty, with the five centuries being the joint-most by any player in a single Vijay Hazare season.

His latest hundred in the semi-final has pushed Vidarbha to the brink of their maiden Vijay Hazare Trophy title.
