Virat Kohli will break this big record of Rahul Dravid, then only one player will remain ahead.
Virat Kohli Record: Preparations for the third Test between India and New Zealand have now started. The last match is to be played at Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai from 1st November. Meanwhile, everyone’s eyes are going to be on Virat Kohli in the next match. His bat has not yet played in a single innings of this series. Fans are waiting to see the same great form of Kohli for which he is known and recognized. Meanwhile, as soon as Kohli comes out to bat in the first innings in this match, he will break a huge record of Rahul Dravid. After this, only Sachin Tendulkar will be left ahead of him.
Virat Kohli just one step away from playing his 600th international innings
Actually, Virat Kohli has played a total of 599 innings in international cricket till now. That means he needs only one more match to complete 600 innings. As soon as Kohli takes the field in the Test starting in Mumbai from November 1, he will become the second batsman from India to do so. Interesting and coincidental thing is that Rahul Dravid has also played only 599 innings during his international career. Although he missed playing his 600th innings. But if seen from another perspective, he has played more than 600 innings in international cricket.
Rahul Dravid has played so many international innings
Rahul Dravid has played a total of 605 innings. But he has not done this for India. Dravid has also played some matches for Asia 11. Therefore, his total international innings are more than 600, but he has managed to play only 599 innings for India. That means Kohli is on the verge of breaking Rahul Dravid’s record in this matter. Now whether this record will be broken on the very first day of the test or later, it will definitely be interesting to see.
Sachin Tendulkar is at number one, it will be difficult to chase him
Sachin Tendulkar is the batsman who has played the most international innings for India. He has played 782 innings for India. He is at number one in this matter. There is no doubt that Virat Kohli will overtake Rahul Dravid, but it will definitely be interesting to see whether he will overtake Sachin Tendulkar. Meanwhile, along with the record, eyes will also be on whether Kohli’s bat will perform as it should in the next match. It remains to be seen whether Kohli’s form will return after Diwali.
