“A testimony of how many matches we played over the years” - Virat Kohli
Virat Kohli mentioned that 1000 ODIs is a big number and added:
Meanwhile, Rahul Dravid called India’s journey over the last 48 years incredible. He noted:
This will be Rohit Sharma’s first ODI series as full-time captain. The 34-year-old, who was to lead the team in South Africa in January, missed out due to an injury.
In the media interaction before the first ODI, Rohit remarked that it is important to adapt to different situations:
India will be the first team in history to play 1000 ODI games. The side emerged victorious on 518 occasions thus far out of 999 matches and lost 431 games. India and Australia are the only teams with over 500 wins in ODI cricket.
