There was nothing special about India’s batting performance on the first day of the series against Australia starting today. India scored just 150 runs and were eliminated. Not to mention a century, no batsman has been able to score a half-century. Nitish Kumar Reddy, playing his first Test, top-scored for the team. He has 41 games to his name. After that, the second highest score was 31 runs scored by Rishabh Pant. With these 31 runs, Pant once again created a blast. What only Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma have been able to do so far, Pant has now done the job too.
Pants included in Rohit and Kohli’s list
In fact, the India vs Australia series was played under the World Test Championship. The Indian team is currently second in the points table, but the possibility of qualifying for the final is certain. Meanwhile, only three Indian batsmen have been able to score more than 2,000 runs in the WTC, the World Test Championship, so far. After Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli, now Rishabh Pant’s name has also been included in the list. This was the situation when Rishabh Pant was out of cricket for almost two years due to injury. But he achieved this new milestone with a spectacular comeback.
Rohit Sharma is the Indian batsman who has scored the most runs in the WTC.
The batsman who has scored the most runs for India in the ICC World Test Championship is Rohit Sharma. He has scored 2,685 points in 37 games so far. After this comes Virat Kohli’s name. To date, he has played 42 games in WTC and scored 2432 points. If we talk about Rishabh Pant, he has scored 2027 runs so far after playing 30 games. Batsmen from other parts of India have not been able to do that. Shubman Gill ranks fourth in this list with 1800 runs in 29 games. Under such circumstances, Pant’s achievement is even greater.
Joe Root is miles ahead of batsmen around the world
If we talk about the batsman who has scored the most runs in the World Test Championship, then the name here is Joe Root. Who is way ahead of the rest of the world’s batsmen. He has scored 5,325 points in 61 games so far. The No. 2 batsman doesn’t even have four thousand runs to his name. This shows what state Joe Root is in at the moment. Marnus Labuschagne is second with 3904 points in 46 games.
