One of the most talented batsmen in the Indian team and worldwide is Rohit Sharma. The Mumbai batsman is known for his flamboyant batting style and exquisite ball timing. His pull shot is a treat to watch, and he is unstoppable for the opposition on his day. He has slammed three double hundreds in One-Day Internationals and won the 2019 ODI Cricketer of the Year in the 2019 ICC Awards. Let’s take a look at some of his record-breaking innings:

264 vs. Sri Lanka: This match broke and created several records on the trot. Rohit Sharma opened the innings for India and scored an unbelievable knock. He scored 264. Players in test matches also do not make that score regularly. He did it in only 173 balls. This is the highest score ever made in ODI cricket, and to date, this record stands. It is unlikely that anybody can break it shortly.

209 vs. Australia: Rohit Sharma entered as an opener, displaying a brilliant knock. He hit 12 boundaries and 16 sixes. His strike rate was 132. India secured a total of 383. Australia gave a good fight back but ended up short of 57 runs, and Sharma became the man of the match.

208 vs. Sri Lanka: Scoring a 200 in a 50-over match is difficult. This feat has been achieved only seven times; out of that, Rohit Sharma has done it thrice. He squashed 13 boundaries and 12 sixes and maintained a strike rate of 135. He is, to date, the only batsman to score a triple hundred thrice in his career in ODI’s.

118 vs. Sri Lanka: Whether in Test, ODI, or T20, Rohit Sharma knows the art of scoring hundreds. In this T20I match, Sharma struck the ball hard and delivered 12 fours and ten sixes. He had a strike rate of 274. His pull shots were outstanding. He scored 118 in just 43 deliveries.

These are not the only record-breaking innings Rohit Sharma has played. We wish to see him break his records in the coming years.
