Ravindra made history by surpassing Jonny Bairstow's record for the most runs
on World Cup debut during his impressive 42-run innings against Sri Lanka on
Thursday. Ravindra concluded the tournament with a remarkable total of 565
runs, exceeding Bairstow's previous record of 532 runs set in the 2019 World
Cup.
What
made Ravindra's achievement even more noteworthy was the fact that he was
making his debut in the World Cup. The 23-year-old batsman had an outstanding
start to the competition, smashing a century in the opening game against
defending champions England. His stellar performance continued with two more
centuries against Australia and Pakistan, complemented by two half-centuries.
Ravindra's ability to consistently deliver under pressure and contribute as a handy bowler, securing six wickets throughout the tournament, established him as a crucial asset for the New Zealand team. His exceptional performance in the 2023 World Cup marked a breakthrough moment in his career, solidifying his status as one of the most exciting young batsmen globally. With such a stellar debut, Ravindra is poised to be a key player for New Zealand in the years ahead.
