IND vs BAN: A heroic tenth-wicket stand between Mehidy Hasan Miraz and Mustafizur Rahman led Bangladesh to complete the chase of 187 with 24 balls to spare, causing Team India to lose the first game of the series by a humiliating margin of one wicket. And, as of now, in the second ODI, the Bangla Tigers have given a target of 272 runs to the Men in Blue.
In the match, India is trying to tie up the series today. However, one more record was expected to be breaken by Virat Kohli but he couldn’t acheive it as he was dismissed for just 5 runs. In the game, Sourav Ganguly and former Australia captain Ricky Ponting’s elite ODI record could have been matched by the former India captain Virat Kohli. He was just 21 runs away from two milestone but looks like fans need to wait more.
Which record has Virat broken now during IND vs BAN?
Prior to the match, Kohli had scored 979 runs in 17 games and was just 21 runs short of reaching the milestone of 1000 runs in ODI cricket in Bangladesh. Five centuries and three fifties were included in the run total, which had an average of 75.30. After Sri Lanka’s legendary Kumar Sangakkara, who scored 1045 runs in 21 matches, Kohli had the opportunity to complete 1000 ODI runs in Bangladesh on Wednesday. Now, he has 984 runs and need to score 16 runs more in the final match to break the record.
He could have also become the fifth hitter in the history of cricket to reach the milestone if he succeeded, having scored 1000 or more runs in three different foreign nations. Alongside Australia great Ponting, Sri Lanka greats Aravinda de Silva and Arjuna Ranatunga, and former India captain Sourav Ganguly, he will be tied for third place. Sanath Jayasuriya and Mahela Jayawardene of Sri Lanka and India’s legendary batsman Sachin Tendulkar, who has scored more than 1000 runs in five different nations, are next (4).
Where has Kohli scored more?
Australia (1327 runs in 29 matches) and England (1349 runs in 33 matches) are the other two nations where Kohli amassed 1000 or more runs. Kohli, who only managed to score 9 runs in 15 balls in the first game, got out for just five runs in the second match.
