At the Dr. Soni Stadium in Jaipur, Ruturaj Gaikwad led Maharashtra from the front in the Vijay Hazare Trophy final league stage match. He broke the world record after 20 years by smashing an undefeated 134 off 131 balls for his team. Gaikwad currently has the highest average in List A cricket history. For those who are unaware, List A cricket encompasses all domestic and international One-Day cricket worldwide.

In 95 innings of List A cricket, the Maharashtra captain has amassed 5050 runs at an incredible average of 58.72, including 20 hundreds and 19 half-centuries. Even though he hasn't played many games for India, he has been incredibly reliable in the format. Even though he scored an incredible century in the series against South Africa at home, he was actually left off the squad for the forthcoming New Zealand series.

For an incredible twenty years, Bevan had the highest average in List A cricket. Throughout his remarkable career, he scored 15103 runs in 385 innings at an average of 57.86 in the 50-over format. Ruturaj's ability to maintain his consistency over an extended length of time will be put to the test. But as of right now, the man appears to be unstoppable in the format.

Although Ruturaj Gaikwad may not have many opportunities in India's ODI squad, he is performing admirably on the domestic circuit, making it difficult for the selectors to overlook him for very long. In his outstanding 134-run knock against Goa, he reached 5000 runs. Maharashtra scored 249 runs for the loss of seven wickets after 50 overs thanks to his knock.

At one point, they were having trouble at 25/5 and 52/6, but Gaikwad ensured that their score was competitive.
