Rohit Falls Short Of 50, Adds Big Records To His Name!

One man needs a special mention and credit for team India's unmatchable run in the ongoing World Cup. Men In Blue is the only unbeaten side in the league matches. No matter how strong the opponent team is, India is handing over a defeat. Be it batting, bowling and fielding India is too good in the tournament so far.

Captain Rohit Sharma needs to be credited for the team's performance. The bowling changes he is making are giving good outcomes. In the previous match, a few batsmen flexed their arms while a couple of them claimed wickets too. This tactic gave an option for India to explore more bowling options.

Since the 2023 edition of Asia Cup we are witnessing a new Rohit Sharma. He has been giving a good start in the powerplay and setting a good stage for the team. He is using the same strategy in the World Cup as well. He is playing quick knocks and has been handy to the team.

India and New Zealand are playing the knockout match today. Rohit Sharma gave a fiery start to the game and scored 47 in just 29 deliveries. There are 16 dots in them. Despite this, he smashed four fours and four sixes.

Rohit Sharma fell short of half century by just three runs. But that did not stop him from breaking a few records. Rohit Sharma emerged as the player with the most number of sixes in the World Cups. He has a half-century of sixes with the four sixes he smashed.

Chris Gayle(49), AB de Villiers(37), Ricky Ponting(31) and Brendon McCullum(29) are in the next positions on the list. What makes Rohit special is that he took fewer innings and smashed more sixes than others.

Hitman also holds the record for most number of sixes by a player in a single edition of the World Cup. He has 27 sixes to his name in the ongoing World Cup and he surpassed Chris Gayle who smashed 26 sixes in 2015.
