Virat Kohli On Cusp of Shattering Sachin Tendulkar’s ‘All-time Records’ in Sri Lanka ODIs | Cricket News

[ad_1] File image of Virat Kohli© AFPVeteran India batter Virat Kohli returns to the cricketing fold after a brief period of break as India take on Sri Lanka in 3-match ODI series, starting Tuesday. In the assignment, Kohli would be looking to shatter a couple of 'all-time records' of none other than his idol and the 'God of Cricket', Sachin Tendulkar. Kohli, who is one of the most prolific batters in the world, had notably scored a century in his last outing in the 50-over format. He would look to continue from where he left off in that match against Bangladesh.When it comes to Sachin Tendulkar, the name needs no introduction. Over an illustrious career that lasted for about 2 decades, Tendulkar registered some of the biggest records to his name. However, some of them could be broken by...

“Great Headache…”: Rohit Sharma Says This On Choosing Between Suryakumar Yadav And Shreyas Iyer In ODIs | Cricket News

[ad_1] Rohit Sharma has made it clear that form is important but so is the format. Hence, without naming he indicated that Shreyas Iyer will make the cut in the playing XI for the first ODI against Sri Lanka in Guwahati on Tuesday. "Those guys who have performed will get a run. It is as simple as that. Sometimes it's hard when we compare guys performing in different formats. I do understand the form. Form is important and so is the format," Rohit said in a press conference.In the series-deciding T20I at Rajkot, Suryakumar Yadav smashed a 51-ball 112 not out to single-handedly steer India to a 91-run win and seal the series 2-1. Rohit said it's important not to "mix up" the two white ball formats."Look, I think it's a great headache (choice between Surya and Shreyas) to have rather than h...

[ad_1] India start their preparation for the ODI World Cup later in the year with a three-match series against Sri Lanka, starting on Tuesday at the Barsapara Cricket Stadium, Guwahati.
