This has never happened with Team India in the history of T20 World Cup
T20 World Cup 2024: Team India has reached the Super 8 of the T20 World Cup. This time Rohit Sharma is leading the team. India has so far won its first three matches in this year’s tournament and directly entered the Super 8. However, the last match of the league could not be played due to rain. Meanwhile, you must know that in the history of the T20 World Cup, only one batsman from India has managed to score a century. But so far no batsman has been successful in scoring a century against India.
Chris Gayle played an innings of 98 runs against India in 2010
The batsman who has played the biggest innings in the history of T20 World Cup against India is Chris Gayle of West Indies. He scored 98 runs in the year 2010, but he missed completing his century by two runs. Since then, no other batsman has been able to cross the 90 mark, let alone a century. The second highest score against India is 86 not out, which Alex Hales made in the 2022 T20 World Cup. The question is that till now only the league phase was going on, but now the Super 8 matches will start, where India will also compete with many big and strong teams. Will there not be a century against India this time too or will this record be broken, the answer to this will be found only in the coming time.
Suresh Raina is the only batsman to score a century for India
We have already told you that only one batsman from India has been able to score a century in the T20 World Cup so far, he is Suresh Raina. Suresh Raina scored 101 runs against South Africa in the 2010 T20 World Cup. Since then there has been a drought of centuries. Virat Kohli definitely tried, but he could not cross the 100 mark. He scored an unbeaten 89 against West Indies in the 2016 T20 World Cup, but still could not complete the century. It will also be interesting to see whether any batsman from India will play a century after Raina or will we have to wait for this too.
