Pooran also has a strong record against India
At the same time, the bat of Nicholas Pooran also speaks strongly against India. He has scored 1791 runs in 56 ODIs at an average of 38. But, against India, Puran has scored 495 runs in 13 matches at an average of 45. Pooran batted well even on India’s last West Indies tour and scored a half-century in one match. In such a situation, both these batsmen can increase India’s trouble.
