Virat Kohli creates history during IND vs SA clash

India's former skipper Virat Kohli has been one of India's shining lights at the T20 World Cup.

Over the eight editions of the competition, Kohli finished as the highest run-getter in the 2014 T20 World Cup.

After a long lean patch, Kohli is back to his best, having hit unbeaten half-centuries against Pakistan and the Netherlands.

And against South Africa, he reached another batting milestone!

Virat Kohli's 1001 makes him the first Indian to score 1000 runs in T20 World Cup history!

It took the star batter just 22 innings to reach the massive 1000-run club in the marquee event!

Only one other batter has 1000 runs in the T20 World Cup history -- Mahela Jayawardene.

Kohli can still break more records for India; He is just 15 runs behind Jayawardene at the top of the most runs in T20 WC history!
