A Detailed Look at the Player with the Most Runs in 2025

In 2025, international cricket produced a number of historic moments in T20Is, ODIs, and Tests. In 2025, Joe Root set several Test records that Sachin Tendulkar was never able to. He surpassed Tendulkar’s best run of ten by scoring fifty or more runs in twelve straight Test matches. Root also became the first player to score centuries in both innings of a Test at Lord’s when he made 143 and 103 against Sri Lanka, a feat Sachin never achieved. 

Virat Kohli broke another major batting record by becoming the fastest player to reach 14,000 runs in ODI cricket. He achieved the milestone in 287 innings during a Champions Trophy match against Pakistan, scoring an unbeaten century. Kohli surpassed Sachin Tendulkar and Kumar Sangakkara by a wide margin and also became the quickest to the mark in terms of balls faced.

England also created history by registering the biggest victory by runs in ODI cricket. They defeated South Africa by 342 runs after posting a massive total of 414. South Africa collapsed for just 72 in reply, one of their lowest scores ever.
