India and Sri Lanka are facing each other in the 32nd match of the World Cup at Wankhede. Lanka won the toss and elected to field. Batting in the match, India lost Rohit Sharma in the first over. Madhushanka, who bowled the opening ball, conceded a boundary in the first ball, but Rohit’s stumps in the second ball.
After Rohit, Virat Kohli and opener Shubman Gill performed well. Gill scored 92 (92) runs and Kohli got out with 88 (94) runs. But ‘King’ Kohli was able to acquire huge records in the competition. After Rohit, Gill and Nissanka, Kohli will become the fourth player to complete 1000 ODI runs in 2023.
This is the eighth time Kohli has completed 1000 runs in a calendar year. After that another achievement has come for Kohli.
Kohli has surpassed the record of cricket legend Sachin Tendulkar who has scored 1000 runs in ODIs the most times. With this, Kohli has achieved this feat eight times (2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2023). Sachin has achieved this feat only seven times (1994, 1996, 1997, 1998, 2000, 2003, 2007).
Along with that, Kohli was close to Sachin Tendulkar’s record of 49 centuries in ODIs. If he had scored a century against Sri Lanka, he would have achieved an epic victory. Dilshan Madhushanka took all three wickets.
Kohli is making new history against Sri Lanka at Wankhede with 34 runs to go for the record. Kohli was a duck in the match against England at Ekana Sports City. But King Kohli is showing good performance in the last matches and now against Lanka. The player scored one century and three fifties in the 2023 World Cup.
When India and Sri Lanka met in the 2011 World Cup final at the same stadium, Mahendra Singh Dhoni and his team defeated Lanka to win the title. But if they win the remaining matches in this World Cup, Lanka can maintain their chances of finishing in the top four. India are also on course for their seventh straight win.
