Virat Kohli breaking records has been the norm in the Indian Premier League. The star batter can break as many as three records when Royal Challengers Bengaluru host Kolkata Knight Riders at the M. Chinnaswamy Stadium in Bengaluru today.
9000 T20 runs for one franchisee
Only 26 batters have scored 9000 runs in the history of T20 cricket and just seven of them have managed to score 5000 runs for one team. Virat Kohli needs 67 runs to reach 9000 runs for RCB in T20s.

Suresh Raina, Chennai Super Kings: 5529 runs
