Wayne Rooney has scored 53 goals for England

The Manchester United captain became England's all-time record goalscorer only recently and is now level on the number of goals with Chhetri. However, Chhetri's 54 goals have come at a much faster rate than Rooney's 0.44 goals per game.

Chhetri has a chance to inch further ahead of Rooney in the coming weeks when he lines up in India colours for the Blue Tigers' doubleheader against Nepal and the Kyrgyz Republic. Rooney, meanwhile, has not been selected for England's matches against Scotland and France in the upcoming international week.
