Virat Kohli: Currently placed 3rd on the list of total centuries in cricket, Virat Kohli has 70 tons. Australia’s Ricky Ponting has 71 hundred and thus Virat will be eager to score a ton and achieve the second spot. If Kohli manages to score 2 tons in this 3 ODI series, he will surpass Ponting and will achieve the second spot, only behind Sachin Tendulkar who has 100 tons in his name.

West Indies: It has been over 2 decades since the West Indies last won an ODI series in India. West Indies last won in 2002-03 where they won a 7-match ODI series 4-3. Following that, the team from the Caribbean have lost 6 times in India. In 2006-07 they lost 3-1, in 2011-12 they were defeated 4-1, in 2013-14 they lost 2-1, in 2014-15 they again lost 2-1, recently in 208-19 and 2019-20 they lost 3-1 and 2-1 respectively. Kieron Pollard would be eager to win a series after their tumultuous ODI form in India.

Jason Holder: The 30-year-old all-rounder who made his ODI debut in 2013 is currently seeking to reach the 2000 run mark in the ODIs. His current ODI run tally stands at 1954 in 100 innings with an average of 24.74. With 46 runs just needed to reach the mark, it will be relatively easy for the talented batter.

Shreyas Iyer: The 27-year-old middle-order hard-hitting batsman currently has a run tally of 867 in the ODI since his debut in 2017. With just 133 runs short of achieving the milestone, Iyer would pounce on this upcoming 3 ODI matches to achieve this record.

Yuzvendra Chahal: The India ace spinner is chasing his 100 wicket-haul in the ODI format of the game. Currently standing on 99 wickets, Chahal will be eager to add this exclusive feather in his cap and the upcoming 3 ODI series would prove to be the perfect opportunity for Chahal.

Kohli- Rohit: Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are just 94 runs short of eclipsing Sachin Tendulkar- Sourav Ganguly’s partnership record. The duo needs just 94 runs more to become the eighth pair to complete 5000 partnership runs.
