India middle-order batsman scores record domestic 308 before World Cup call
A middle-order batsman scored a record 308 in domestic cricket before earning a World Cup call-up.
An Indian middle-order batsman scored 308 runs in a domestic match, the highest individual score in the competition's history. The innings came days before his selection for the T20 World Cup squad, ending a period of limited international exposure.
The player had featured in one T20 International match earlier in his career. His domestic performances had drawn attention from selectors despite his absence from the national team setup in recent years.
Selection for the World Cup squad marks a significant shift in his international prospects. The batsman had previously been considered for longer formats but had not secured a regular place in the white-ball side.

The selection signals that domestic volume can override recent international gaps when World Cup squad depth is required.
