Most runs in T20: Rohit Sharma is getting close to becoming the 7th player to reach the milestone of 10,000 T20 runs. 

When Mumbai Indians will be up against Punjab Kings in the league game of IPL 2022, Rohit Sharma would eye an incredible record. Rohit Sharma can become just the 7th player in the history of the game to complete the milestone of 10,000 T20 runs. Virat Kohli is the only Indian to achieve that feat.

Rohit Sharma is currently at 9975 runs, and he just needs 25 runs more to enter the elite club. The Indian batter has scored 9975 T20 runs at 31.76 courtesy of six centuries. Mumbai Indians have lost all four of their games in the tournament so far, and they certainly need their captain Rohit Sharma to fire in this game.
