Solution

Shekhar is short of a few runs in order to reach the 10,000 run milestone. The number of runs he is short by will be the difference between 10,000 and 6980.

$\begin{matrix} Runs to achieve & = 10000 Runs scored & = - 6980 Runs required & = 3020 \end{matrix}$

Therefore, he needs 3020 more runs.
