Virat Kohli Breaks Rohit Sharmas IPL Record in Days

Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli are now playing their 19th IPL season and they're still against each other. With a lot of records in the tournament, Hitman recently created a record in the game against KKR. But now in yesterday's clash between RCB and CSK, Kohli broke that record with ease.

The Indian Premier League gets more exciting for the fans, as it is Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli against each other. Although it is time for them to face each other, still they are fighting in terms of records. In the second game of the tournament, Rohit Sharma was able to make a record of most runs in IPL against a team.

With the match against KKR, he has managed to score 1161 runs against them. But that record made by the Hitman lasted for just a few days, till the clash between RCB and CSK happened. Virat Kohli was standing a few runs behind him in this record, as he waited for the clash against CSK, which happened last night.

He went on to score 28 runs in the game, which helped him to surpass Rohit Sharma's record. Now, it is Virat Kohli who holds the record of most runs in the IPL against a team. With 1174 runs against CSK, he has dominated them with much ease.

Our Take

Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma would be the only players who you would find in this record. Both players have spent a lot of time in the Indian Premier League, and their records against each team remains great. However, it should be noted that RCB and CSK were set to face each other just once in this season. Rohit Sharma still has a chance to overtake Virat Kohli before this season ends, as KKR and MI will face each other once again on 20 May.
