Top 6 contenders for the 10,000 ODI runs club

India v South Africa: Group B - 2011 ICC World Cup
Sachin Tendulkar was the first to get to 10,000 ODI runs
India v West Indies - 2015 ICC Cricket World Cup
MS Dhoni will likely be the latest entrant into the 10,000 runs club

1. MS Dhoni - 9826

Just 174 runs away from making it to the club, and with a ODI series against Sri Lanka still to go, Dhoni looks good to become the 12th member.

The former Indian captain is the leading run scorer currently playing in ODI cricket. It is quite likely that the landmark achievement will come against Sri Lanka in the upcoming ODI series.

If he does get there by the end of the Sri Lanka series, he will also become the third fastest to get to 10,000 (in terms of innings played). His average (51.71) is way above anyone in the club, the next highest being Tendulkar (44.83).

If Dhoni continues to play till the next World Cup, he might even have a shot at climbing up a few rungs on the highest run-getters' list.
