Stats: India equal world record for most 200+ totals in T20Is

On the back of fifties from Suresh Raina and KL Rahul, India registered their biggest win in T20Is and claimed a 2-0 series win over Ireland after the second T20I at Malahide on Friday.

Ireland won the toss and elected to field but Rahul and Raina immediately made the hosts regret their decision. Both players scored fifties and on the back of a 9-ball 32 from Hardik Pandya, India posted 213/4 in their 20 overs.

In response, Ireland lost their first four wickets inside the powerplay and never really recovered from that. Only four Irish batsmen got to double digits as they fell to the spin of Yuzvendra Chahal and Kuldeep Yadav. Both bowlers finished with three wickets as Ireland were bundled out for just 70 in 12.3 overs.

Here are some interesting statistical highlights from the second T20I between India and Ireland:

0 - No team has scored more 200+ totals in T20Is than India. This was India's 11th such total, South Africa also have 11.

1 - This is the first time in T20I history that India have scored back-to-back totals in excess of 200. They scored 208 in the first T20I and 213 in the second.

1 - KL Rahul becomes the first Indian batsman to equal or outscore an opponent's total in a T20I.

2 - India's 143-run win over Ireland is the second-biggest win in T20I history. The biggest win is Sri Lanka's 172-run win over Kenya in 2007.

2 - Suresh Raina is second on the list of most T20 runs scored in 2018. Raina has scored 1,030 runs in 34 matches while Rishabh Pant has 1,125 runs in 26 matches.

3 - Hardik Pandya's strike of 355.55 is the third-highest strike rate in T20I innings (minimum 30+ runs). Yuvraj Singh holds the record courtesy of his 16-ball 58 against England during the 2007 World T20 in which his strike rate was 362.50.
