Hashim Amla is sure to break all these records,he has already got 3200 runs at an average of 60 in Only 62 ODIs!Going by this average,he will need just 13-14 matches more to achieve this feat.
Kohli also has the unique record of only player to have 13 centuries while scoring 4000 ODI runs. The greats of Richards, Lara had 8 centuries and Greenidge 9 centuries when they completed 4000 runs.

This also means that while he was moor consistent in scoring hundreds, he was less consistent in performing well in all innings for India..
One more astonishing record of Virat Kohli is that he has the maximum number of centuries 13 centuries while scoring 4000 runs. The greats of Richars and Lara had only 8 centuries and Greenidge has 9 centuries when they completed 4000 runs.

Dear Vaidya, you are right. Openers like Jayasuriya,Stewart,Fleming,Dilshan, Jayavardhane,Mahanama etc. too have done in less innings :)

Dear Vaidya, you INTENTIONALLY forgot name of SRT who was middle and lower middle order batsman like me.
Although once you wrote that SRT has no century batting at no.4,5,6 where as the fact is he has A FEW tons OVERSEAS batting at no.4.
OVERSEAS is the place where I couldnt score even a SINGLE in 8YEARS:)
