India continue to dominate Pakistan in ODI cricket
The IND vs PAK Super 4s clash was also special for the Indian cricket team batter Virat Kohli as he surpassed Indian legend Sachin Tendulkar to become the fastest batsman to reach 13000 ODI runs. Kohli achieved the feat in his 267th ODI innings, whereas, Sachin reached the milestone 321 innings. Apart from surpassing Sachin, Virat became the 5th highest run-scorer in the history of ODI cricket. The thumping win against Pakistan will give the Indian cricket team a lot of confidence in their next match against Sri Lanka on September 12. However, with 100 percent chances of rain in Colombo on Tuesday, the match can once again move towards a washout.
