4 players who are likely to cross 10,000 ODI runs in 2018

#3 Chris Gayle (9420 runs)

The hard-hitting West Indian batsman has been in and out of the international team for more than a year now. It's clearly visible that the 'universe-boss' is fading away with time owing to his age and may call it a day in international cricket soon.

The left-handed batsman has scored tons of runs for the West Indies, collecting 9420 runs in 275 ODIs. He has scored 22 tons and 48 half-centuries in the 50 overs format. Even though there is only a slight chance that he may be consistent in the West Indies side this year, Gayle can reach the 10,000 ODI runs mark in a few matches if he gets some ODI games.

Currently, Gayle is ranked 16th on the list of the highest run scorers in ODIs and is 580 runs short of reaching the 10,000 runs landmark. Brian Lara is the only West Indies batsman in the 10,000 ODI runs elite club and Gayle may be the second one to join the list.
