Sangakkara holds the record for fastest 8000 runs in Test cricket. In the Test, this record can be broken by Indian captain Virat Kohli and Australia's star batsman Steve Smith. Steve Smith has scored 6977 runs in 125 innings of 69 Tests. That is, he has 27 innings left to break Sangakkara's record. That is, Smith has to score 1024 runs during these 27 Test innings.


On the other hand, Virat Kohli has played 84 Test matches so far. In which he has scored 7202 runs in 141 innings. He needs 799 runs in 11 innings to break this record of Sangakkara. Virat recently scored 136 runs against Bangladesh. Which does not seem difficult given his recent form.
