Ruturaj Gaikwad could not break this two-year-old record of Virat Kohli

India defeated Australia in the final match of the five-match T20 series. With this victory, Team India captured the series 4-1. In the last match of the series, Ruturaj Gaikwad could play only an inning of 10 runs. Due to this, he missed out on registering a big record in his name.

Ruturaj scored 223 runs in the five-match T20 series. He had a chance to make the Indian record for scoring the most runs in a T20 bilateral series, but he could not do so. This record is recorded in the name of former Indian captain Virat Kohli.

Kohli had scored 231 runs for India in a T-20 series. Ruturaj scored 223 runs in five matches against Australia. If he had managed to score 9 more runs, he would have broken his big record of Kohli. In this matter, he was one run behind KL Rahul, who holds the record of scoring 224 runs in a series.
