ENG vs IND: Kohli can break Dravid’s amazing record in the second ODI, will have to score only this many runs

Delhi: The second match of the three-match ODI series between India and England will be played on July 16 at Sophia Gardens, Cardiff. By winning the first ODI, Team India has taken a 1-0 lead in the series and now its eyes will be on winning the series.

In this match, everyone’s eyes will also be on star batsman Virat Kohli. In the first ODI, he was out after scoring only 5 runs, but in the second match, he will have a golden opportunity to make a big record in his name.

Just 4 runs away from breaking Rahul Dravid’s record

Virat Kohli has so far scored 2,642 runs in 74 innings of 58 international matches played on England soil. If he scores just 4 runs in the second ODI, he will become the highest run-scorer for India in England.

Currently, this record is in the name of Rahul Dravid, who scored 2,645 runs in 56 innings of 46 international matches played in England between 1996 and 2011.
