Indian cricket’s ‘Hitman’ i.e. Rohit Sharma has set many such records in his career, crossing which is like climbing a mountain for any batsman. Even though records keep being made and broken on the cricket field, there are some records of Rohit which testify to the class and consistency of his batting. The fear that Rohit created in the bowlers around the world, who scored a lot of runs and hit sixes in international cricket, has been recorded in golden letters in the history of cricket. Let us know about those 5 historical records of Rohit Sharma, which will remain a topic of discussion among cricket lovers for decades to come. Hat-trick of ‘Double Century’ in ODI Rohit Sharma is the only batsman in the world who has scored three double centuries in One Day International cricket. His world record inning of 264 runs is still fresh in the minds of cricket lovers. Scoring a double century once in ODI is a big challenge, but Rohit has done it thrice. This record not only reflects his ability but also confirms that when the ‘Hitmen’ set out, no target is safe. Breaking this record seems impossible at the moment. The great record of centuries in a World Cup. The performance of Rohit Sharma in the 2019 World Cup is considered to be the most brilliant journey in the history of cricket. He set a new record by scoring 5 centuries in a single World Cup edition. Such a consistent and aggressive form of a batsman had never been seen before in any World Cup. This feat of Rohit puts him in the category of the biggest match-winning players of world cricket. King of most sixes in international cricket: When it comes to hitting sixes, Rohit Sharma has no match. Rohit also holds the world record for hitting the most number of sixes in international cricket (combining all three formats). He not only left behind the legendary Chris Gayle, but also proved his batting technique and strength. This ‘hitting’ ability of Rohit explains why he is considered the most dangerous batsman in the world. Consistency in captaincy and passion for victory records: Not only with the bat, Rohit has written a new chapter in captaincy also. The T20 World Cup win and consistent success in bilateral series has established him as a great captain. The way he nurtured the young players and kept the team united as a unit is a great example of his leadership. His skill in leading the Indian team out of difficult situations to victory makes him one of the greatest players of all time. Highest score in ODI match: Magic figure of 264 Rohit Sharma’s individual score of 264 runs is still the highest score in any ODI match. This innings played against Sri Lanka at Eden Gardens is one of the most memorable innings in the cricket world. Scoring so many runs by a batsman in a 50 over game is such a record that breaking it will remain a big dream for any batsman for many years to come. These records of Rohit Sharma are not just statistics, but they are a proof of his greatness which will always be remembered by cricket lovers even after his retirement.
