Warner achieved the milestone during Australia’s World Cup 2023 opener against India in Chennai on Sunday
The Australia opener set the incredible feat having played in 19 innings
Warner reached the milestone by slamming a boundary off Hardik Pandya’s delivery
The record was previously held by Tendulkar and AB de Villiers
Both Tendulkar and De Villiers required 20 innings each to jointly hold the record
Warner also became just the fourth Australian batter to reach the 1,000-run mark in ODI World Cups
Warner joined an elite list, comprising Ricky Ponting, Adam Gilchrist and Mark Waugh
The 36-year-old was dismissed for 41 during the match against India
Despite Warner’s record-breaking knock, Australia lost the match by 6 wickets.
