Virat Kohli scored 73 runs in 49 balls against England in second T20 at Narendra Modi Stadium on Sunday and become the first batsman who scored 3000+ runs in T20. Before this match Virat was seen struggling for his form during Test Series against England and has been out on duck for 3 times in a months which is quite rare to see a batsman like Kohli, who is probably the best batsman in the world in all formats. Kohli is the only batsman in the world who is having 50+ avg in all formats of the game.
Virat has achieved this milestone in his 86th T20 matches and took 81 innings to do so with the avg of 50.86 which is rare to see in T20 cricket by any cricketer. Martin Guptil and Rohit Share are on 2nd and 3rd respectively in the race of highest run getting in t20. Martin Guptil has played 99 T20 matches so far and in 95 innings he scored 2839 runs with an avg of 32.26, whereas Rohit has played 108 matches and in 100 innings he has scored 2773 runs with the avg of 32.62.
Rohit has missed both the T20s against England and is likely to miss the 3rd also because Ishan Kishan has played an excellent inning on his debut as an opener and has scored 56 runs in just 32 balls with 5 fours and 4 sixes. He completed his maiden International half century in just 28 balls which will reduce the chances of Rohit to play in 3rd T20 which is on 16th March, 2021.
