The second match of the Test series between India and Bangladesh is being played at Green Park ground in Kanpur. In this match, Rohit Sharma has won the toss and decided to bowl first. Virat Kohli can make a big record in his name in this match against Bangladesh.
This record will be registered in Kohli's name as soon as he scores 35 runs against Bangladesh. Virat Kohli will create a big history as soon as he scores 27000 runs in international cricket.
India's legendary batsman Sachin Tendulkar took 623 innings to reach the mark of 27000 runs in international cricket. Virat Kohli has scored 26965 runs in just 593 innings.
If Virat scores 35 runs in this match, he will complete 27 thousand runs in just 594 innings. He will become the batsman to reach this figure faster than Sachin. Apart from Sachin, Sri Lanka's Kumar Sangakkara and Australia's Ricky Ponting are the other names in international cricket.
Virat Kohli had a chance to reach this figure in the first test against Bangladesh. But Kohli flopped with the bat in the Chennai Test. In the first innings of the first match against Bangladesh, he scored 6 runs and in the second innings only 17 runs came from his bat. Due to this, he missed out on reaching this magical figure.
How has been the condition of Kanpur test

By the end of the first day's play, the Bangladesh team has scored 107 runs at the loss of 3 wickets. Ravichandran Ashwin and Akashdeep have got wickets from India's side.
