New Delhi: Indias star batter Virat Kohli etches his name in the history books by becoming the fastest player to cross the 27000 international run mark on Day 4 of the second Test against Bangladesh in Kanpur. He surpassed Master Blaster Sachin Tendulkars record as he raced to the elusive feat with elegance on a sunny day in Kanpur on Monday. The former Indian captain achieved the feat in 594 innings 29 less than the batting maestro. During his illustrious career Sachin slammed 27000 international runs in 623 innings. Sri Lankas decorated wicketkeeper batter Kumar Sangakkara achieved the feat in 648 innings. Australias celebrated skipper Ricky Ponting amassed 27000 international runs in 650 innings. As Virat Kohli continued to pull off his effortless drives and eye-catching stroke play he looked destined for an extended stay on the crease. But his attempt to play across the line led to his downfall. Shakib Al Hasans ball kept low and sneaked past the wide gap between Kohlis bat and pad. After hitting the historic milestone Kohli walked back for a score of 47(35). Kohli now boasts 27012 international runs the fastest by any player in the history of cricket. With more than two days of play washed out by rain India showed aggressive intent moments after bowling out Bangladesh on 233. After witnessing two days of rain the people in Kanpur witnessed boundaries pelting down relentlessly. The mayhem of boundaries in Kanpur was started by Yashasvi Jaiswal and skipper Rohit Sharma. The quickfire stand of 55 runs between the opening duo ended in 3.5 overs with spinner Mehidy Hasan Miraz cleaning up Rohit for a quickfire 23 in 11 balls with a sole four and three sixes. During Rohits dismissal the scoring rate of these two was 14.34 runs per over the highest scoring rate in a Test partnership with a minimum of 50 runs outdoing the England duo of Ben Stokes and Ben Duckett who stitched a stand of 87 in just 44 balls against the West Indies at Edgbaston this year scoring at a rate of 11.86 runs per over. Even after Rohit was dismissed the protective anchor-like approach of Shubman Gill provided Jaiswal with a safety net to go even harder at bowlers helping India reach the hundred-run mark in just 10.1 overs outdoing the teams record of registering the milestone in 12.2 overs against the West Indies just last year.
