Shreyas Iyer Nears Major ODI Record: Could Surpass Virat Kohli in Rajkot!

• Shreyas Iyer is just 34 runs away from reaching 3000 ODI runs.
• He has played 68 ODI innings and could become the fastest Indian to 3000 runs, potentially surpassing Shikhar Dhawan (72 innings) and Virat Kohli (75 innings).
• Iyer has been a crucial solution for India's number four batting position, scoring 1479 runs at an average of 54.77 in 32 innings.
• Between 2017-2021, India struggled to find a consistent number four batsman, trying 13 different players.
• If he achieves this in Rajkot, Iyer would jointly become the fourth fastest globally to 3000 ODI runs, alongside Sir Viv Richards.

Why It Matters: Shreyas Iyer is on the verge of becoming the fastest Indian to score 3000 ODI runs, potentially surpassing Virat Kohli.
