New Delhi:
The Indian cricket team made the nation proud by crushing Pakistan on Sunday in the Champions Trophy match at the Dubai International Stadium. Led by Rohit Sharma, Team India dominated the game and secured a six-wicket victory. From Shubman Gill to Shreyas Iyer, the Men in Blue brought their A-game to the field. But the star of the show was undoubtedly Virat Kohli.
Not only did Virat smash his 51st ODI century, but he also became the fastest batter in ODI history to score 14,000 runs. He reached the milestone in just 287 innings. The previous record was held by Sachin Tendulkar, who achieved the feat in 350 innings.
