England cricket team
India vs England T20i Series: The T20 series between India and England is now around the corner. When these two teams face each other, the excitement of cricket also reaches its peak. Even though the Champions Trophy starts next month, there is a lot of curiosity about the T20 International series before that. A big record of Virat Kohli is also about to be broken in this series. The special thing is that this record can be broken not by any Indian but by an English batsman.
Virat Kohli is the batsman who has scored the most runs in India vs England T20 International.
The teams of India and England will face each other on January 22 at Eden Gardens, Kolkata. In all the T20 International matches that have taken place between India and England so far, Virat Kohli has scored the most runs, but now Jos Buttler has come very close to him. Virat Kohli has scored 648 runs in 21 T20 International matches against England. No one else from both the teams has scored more runs than that. Kohli has scored 5 half-centuries against England.
Jos Buttler only 150 runs behind Virat Kohli
Now if we talk about Jos Buttler, he has so far scored 498 runs in 22 T20 International matches against India. He comes second in this list. That means, if Jos Buttler scores 151 more runs in these five-match series, he will overtake Virat Kohli. This is not a difficult task for a batsman like Jos Buttler. They may not wait till five matches, this record may be destroyed in the first two-three matches.
Jos Buttler will open the innings for England in this series
Jos Buttler has been made the captain of England for this series and it is expected that he will play all the matches. He comes into the opening batting for his team and bats brilliantly. Well, if we talk after these two top batsmen, then the names of Rohit Sharma, Jason Roy and Eoin Morgan come in it, who are not in this series and have already retired. Therefore, Jos Buttler has a special opportunity to break Kohli’s record in these five matches and occupy the number one position.
