The first match of the 3-match T20I series between India and Sri Lanka is starting from today. This match is being held at ‘Atal Bihari Vajpayee Ekana Stadium’ (SL vs IND T20I 1st Match Lucknow, 2022) in Lucknow. In this match, the eyes of Team India captain Rohit Sharma will be on a big record.
According to the history of international cricket, if today the captain of the Indian team Rohit Sharma manages to score 37 runs, then he will leave behind Martin Guptill and the world’s angry young man batsman Virat Kohli. Will become the number one batsman in the world in T20I cricket. Also, this will be Rohit Sharma’s 123rd T20 International match. He is currently just 1 match behind Pakistan batsman Shoaib Malik in terms of playing the most matches in international T20 cricket. Shoaib Malik has played a total of 124 T20I matches in his career. Yes, one thing is for sure that, after playing all three matches of the 3 match T20 series (SL vs IND T20I Series, 2022) against Sri Lanka, the Indian captain will sit on top in this matter as well.
The history of cricket tells that a total of 22 T20 matches have been played between India and Sri Lanka, out of which India has won 14 and Sri Lanka has won 7 matches.
