Rachin Ravindra became the highest run-scorer in the debut World Cup.

New Delhi. New Zealand’s Indian-origin cricketer Rachin Ravindra is being considered as the future cricketer of world cricket. His performance in the World Cup so far has been heartily appreciated by cricket luminaries. Under the tournament, Rachine achieved a big feat in the match against Sri Lanka (New Zealand vs Sri Lanka) in Bengaluru on Thursday. By winning this match by 5 wickets, New Zealand has strengthened its chances of entering the semi-finals. With his 42-run innings (34 balls, three fours and three sixes), 23-year-old Racine not only contributed to the team’s victory but also set the record for the highest run-scoring in the first World Cup.

The left-handed batsman has so far scored 565 runs at an average of 70.62 in his first World Cup in 9 matches, including three centuries and two fifties. Meanwhile, he broke the record of England’s Jonny Bairstow, who scored 532 runs in the World Cup 2019, the most runs in his first World Cup. The special thing is that Bairstow scored 532 runs in 11 matches of the last World Cup, while Racine has played only 9 matches.

In the second position, India’s Virat Kohli is third with 543 runs at an average of 108.60 in just eight matches. Virat has scored two centuries and four fifties in the tournament so far.
