The Indian cricket team is ready to enter ODI cricket once again. The three-match ODI series between India and West Indies will start from September 27 in Thiruvananthapuram. This time all eyes will be on former captain Rohit Sharma. For Rohit, this series will not only be an opportunity to score runs, but he can also have many big records in his name.

Rohit Sharma has returned after scoring a brilliant century in the last match of the last ODI series against England. In that match played at Lord's, he played an innings of 138 runs in 110 balls. Amidst the ongoing discussions regarding his retirement and place in the team, Rohit had given a strong reply with the bat.

Now the Hitmen would like to maintain their rhythm against West Indies also. Rohit Sharma has a chance to make some special records in this series. In this article we will mention those 5 records which Rohit Sharma can make in the ODI series against West Indies.

1. Can become the third Indian to complete 12000 runs in ODI

Rohit Sharma is among India's highest run-scoring batsmen in ODI cricket. He has scored 11,895 runs in 288 matches at an average of 48.95. During this period, he has scored 34 centuries and 62 half-centuries.

Rohit is just 105 runs away from completing 12,000 ODI runs. If he achieves this figure against West Indies, he will become only the third Indian batsman to score 12 thousand runs in ODIs. Before him, Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli have achieved this position.

2. Can become the first batsman to hit 100 sixes against a team

Rohit Sharma is also known for his ability to hit long sixes. He has hit 88 sixes in 65 matches so far in international cricket against West Indies.

In international cricket, there are only two batsmen who have hit 100 or more sixes against a single team. Rohit has hit 138 sixes in 87 matches against Australia, while West Indies legend Chris Gayle has hit 130 sixes in 70 matches against England.

If Rohit hits 12 sixes in this series against West Indies, he will become the first batsman to hit 100 or more sixes against two different teams.

3. Opportunity to score an ODI century at the oldest age in India

Rohit Sharma is 39 years old and he also has a chance to make the record of scoring an ODI century at the oldest age on Indian soil. Currently this record is in the name of great batsman Sunil Gavaskar. He scored an unbeaten 103 against New Zealand in Nagpur in 1987 at the age of 38 years and 113 days.

Rohit has already become the oldest Indian batsman to score an ODI century. He scored a century against England at Lord's at the age of 39 years and 80 days. Now he can keep this record in his name even on home ground.

4. Chance to become the oldest player to score a century against West Indies

If Rohit scores a century in any match against West Indies, then he can have another special record in his name. He will become the oldest batsman to score an ODI century against West Indies. Currently, this record is in the name of former England captain and wicketkeeper batsman Alec Stewart. Stewart scored an unbeaten 100 against West Indies in Nottingham on 20 July 2000 at the age of 37 years and 103 days.

5. Chance to go ahead in terms of centuries against West Indies

Rohit Sharma has three centuries to his name in ODI cricket against West Indies. In this matter he is at par with Yuvraj Singh and Rahul Dravid. If Hitman scores another century in this series, he will have four ODI centuries against West Indies. With this, he will occupy second place along with Sachin Tendulkar in this matter.
