Rohit Sharma fifty breaks sixes record in IND vs SL ODI

Rohit Sharma. You beauty. The leader showcased his aggressive batting style, smashing 58 runs off just 47 balls to help India gain an upper hand in the opening ODI against Sri Lanka.

Rohit Sharma Fifty Show! The ‘Hitman’ moniker suits Rohit perfectly, as he bludgeoned the Lankan bowlers to all parts of the ground. Right from the first overs, the tone was set. He hammered a six on the very second ball he faced and guided a four in the same over. Once Rohit was saved by a close LBW shout, he never looked back. While Shubman Gill kept his wicket intact, Rohit dominated and constantly kept the Lankan bowlers under pressure.

If they pitched up, he played lofted drives, and they couldn’t afford to bang it short because the Indian skipper is one of the best pullers in the game. Rohit hit his 56th ODI fifty in style with a six, reaching the milestone in just 33 balls. Despite India losing a cluster of wickets after a solid opening partnership of 75 runs, Rohit’s fifty was extremely crucial given the tricky nature of the Colombo pitch.

Rohit & the Six-Hitting Spree The 37-year-old smashed three sixes during his 58-run innings against Sri Lanka, joining Eoin Morgan in an all-time record. Rohit has now become the captain with the most sixes in international cricket alongside the former English skipper.

Most International Sixes as Captain:

Player Innings Sixes
Rohit Sharma 134 233
Eoin Morgan 180 233
MS Dhoni 330 211
