Legendary West Indies all-rounder Kieron Pollard entered his name in the history books on Saturday (August 30) by becoming the second cricketer in the world to score 14,000 runs in T20s. The 38-year-old all-rounder needed 19 runs on Saturday to complete 14,000 runs in T20s and join Chris Gayle in the elite list, and he achieved the objective by remaining unbeaten on 19 runs from nine balls for Trinbago Knight Riders in the 16th league match of Caribbean Premier League (CPL) 2025 against Barbados Royals at Brian Lara Stadium in Tarouba, Trinidad.
Gayle finished his T20 career with 14,562 runs in 463 matches, whereas Pollard has 14,000 runs to his name in 712 matches.
