During the Proteas win over New Zealand in Durban on Wednesday, AB De Villiers became the fastest batsmen to reach 8000 runs in ODI cricket. As the world's number 1 batsman in 50 over cricket, I guess this shouldn't come as news, but this guy has been crushing records for quite a while now. When SA needs runs in a hurry, this is who we turn to, and understandably so, his strike rate is insane. Here is a quick list of the ODI records that he holds:
Fastest Batsman to 7 000 runs
Fastest Batsman to 8 000 runs
Fastest 50
Fastest 100
Fastest 150
Most 6's in a Single inning (shared with Chris Gayle)
Most 6's in a World Cup
