KL Rahul on the Brink of Historic Milestone at The Oval

Indian opener KL Rahul stands on the verge of cricketing history, needing just 32 more runs to break Sunil Gavaskar's record for the most runs by an Indian opener during a SENA series. He seeks to achieve this feat in the last Test against England at The Oval in London.

Currently, Rahul is the second-highest run-scorer in the series, accumulating 511 runs over eight innings with an impressive average of 63.87, including two centuries and two fifties. His stellar performance at Old Trafford, where he scored 46 and 90, was pivotal in helping India salvage a draw.

Furthermore, if Rahul manages another fifty-plus score, he will equal Gavaskar and Murali Vijay for the most fifty-plus scores by an Indian during a SENA series. Achieving a century would see him become the first Indian opener with three hundreds in England, bringing him closer to surpassing Gavaskar's record of eight centuries during these challenging overseas series.
