The second match of the three-match ODI series between India and Australia will be played on October 23 at Adelaide Oval. In this match, all eyes will be on former Indian captain Virat Kohli, who could not open his account in the first match of the series. However, Virat’s figures on this historic ground are quite impressive, hence fans are expecting a strong comeback from him. If he manages to play a big innings in this match, he can make many big records in his name.
Virat has a chance to create history
Virat Kohli has played 12 international matches so far at the Adelaide Cricket Ground and has scored 975 runs at an average of 65. Which also includes 5 centuries. During this period, Virat has scored 2 centuries in ODI format and 3 centuries in Test format. In such a situation, if Virat scores a century in this match, he will have a golden opportunity to create history. With this century, he will become the player who has scored the most ODI centuries on this ground. This record will leave behind not only Australian players but also all the cricketers around the world. ODI matches are being played at Adelaide Oval since 1975, but till now no batsman has been able to score 3 ODI centuries here.
Apart from this, Kohli has a chance to achieve another historic achievement in international cricket. If he scores a century in this ODI, he will hold the record of scoring the most international centuries as a foreign player on a single ground in Australia. At present, Kohli is on par in this matter with England’s Jack Hobbs, who had scored five centuries at the Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG).
1000 international runs in adelaide
Virat has a chance to perform another historic feat. If Kohli scores 25 runs in this match, he will become the first foreign player to score 1000 international runs at the Adelaide Cricket Ground. At present, he is also the batsman who has scored the most international runs on this ground.
