Ishan Kishan, who was making his comeback to the team, stole the show by scoring the fastest double century in one-day internationals. He blasted 24 fours and 10 sixes on his way to a total score of 210 off of just 131 balls.
Virat Kohli, who also achieved his 72nd international century, and he were involved in a partnership for the second wicket that resulted in 290 runs and helped India reach a score of 409 for 9 in 50 overs when they were given the opportunity to bat first.
In One-Day Internationals, the combination between the two players was third best for India and sixth best overall.
In a one-day international match against New Zealand in 1999, India’s greats Sachin Tendulkar and Rahul Dravid put up a partnership that scored 331 runs. This achievement gives them the record for India’s largest partnership ever.
During the One-Day International World Cup match against Sri Lanka in Taunton, which also took place in the same year, former India captains Sourav Ganguly and Dravid had put on 318 runs together, which is the second-highest run total for India.
The record for the largest partnership in one-day international cricket was set by Chris Gayle and Marlon Samuels of the West Indies in 2015. They added 372 runs together during an ODI World Cup match against Zimbabwe in 2015.
Ishan Kishan overshadowed Virat Kohli’s 91-ball 113 in the third and final One-Day International (ODI) match between India and Bangladesh. In this encounter, India took the Bangladesh bowlers to the cleaners in the last game of the three-match series.
The left-handed batsman, who is 24 years old and left-handed, made the most of the opportunity he was given when he opened the batting in place of the injured Rohit Sharma.
On the other hand, Kohli moved ahead of Ricky Ponting on the list of batters who have scored the most hundreds in international competition.
After reaching 339/3 after 40 overs, India only managed to score 70 runs in the final 10 overs while also losing five wickets.
