The Indian cricket team has been making waves lately, with two young and talented players stealing the spotlight. Virat Kohli, the Indian skipper, broke a historic record in the recent Test match against Australia, moving up to the second position on the list of leading run-scorers in international matches against the five-time ODI World Cup winners. Meanwhile, Shubman Gill, the right-handed batter, scored an unbeaten 126 in the T20 international match against New Zealand, making it the highest score ever made by an Indian in a T20 international. These remarkable achievements are a testament to the depth and talent of the Indian cricket team and have brought joy and pride to cricket fans across the nation. In this article, we will take a closer look at the incredible performances of these two young cricketers and what they mean for Indian cricket.

1. Virat Kohli

Indian cricket fans were in for a treat as Virat Kohli, the star Indian batter, broke Brian Lara’s record against Australia during his unbeaten 59-run innings in the fourth Test match held in Ahmedabad on March 11. This was a historic moment for the Indian skipper, as he moved up to the No. 2 position on the list of leading run-scorers in international matches against Australia, behind only the legendary Sachin Tendulkar.

With this feat, Virat surpassed the West Indian great Brian Lara’s tally of 4714 runs against the five-time ODI World Cup winners. Virat now has 4729 runs to his name in his 89th match for India against Australia, across all formats. This remarkable achievement is a testament to Virat’s skill and consistency as a top-class batsman.

2. Shubham Gill

Meanwhile, another young Indian cricketer, Shubman Gill, has also made a name for himself with his impressive performance in the T20 international match against New Zealand. The right-handed batter scored an unbeaten 126, the highest score ever made by an Indian in a T20 international. His masterclass helped India secure a 2-1 series victory over the Kiwis.

Gill’s stunning knock is a testament to the depth and talent of the Indian cricket team. This performance, along with Virat’s record-breaking innings, has brought joy and pride to cricket fans across the nation. India’s unbeaten series record at home in any format since March 2019 has been maintained, making this a memorable moment for the entire Indian cricket fraternity.
