Rohit Sharma made the biggest record
Rohit Sharma Most Six as Captain in International Cricket: Indian cricket team captain Rohit Sharma is in great form at the moment. Rohit Sharma, who played for the first time in ODIs after the final of the ODI World Cup 2023, created another new record against Sri Lanka today. This is Hitman Rohit Sharma’s first match after winning the T20 World Cup 2024 final. Playing against Sri Lanka, Rohit Sharma has created such a record, which is no longer easy to chase. He has become the first captain in the world to hit the most sixes in international cricket as a captain.
Rohit Sharma has hit the most sixes as a captain
Rohit Sharma has now become the batsman to hit the most sixes as a captain in international cricket. He broke the record of former England captain Eoin Morgan. Rohit did this feat when he hit his third six in the first ODI match being played against Sri Lanka in Colombo today. Rohit Sharma has played a total of 124 international matches as a captain so far. He has now hit 234 sixes in these matches. If we talk about Eoin Morgan, he hit 233 sixes while captaining England in 198 matches.
India’s MS Dhoni is at number three
If we talk about Rohit Sharma and Eoin Morgan, then India’s MS Dhoni is present here. He has captained India in 332 international matches. During this, 211 sixes have come from his bat. On the other hand, if we talk about Australia’s Ricky Ponting, he has hit 171 sixes while captaining in 324 matches during his career. That is, if we talk about all these captains, then Rohit Sharma has not only hit the most sixes, but has also played fewer matches than all of them. That is, in this respect also, this is a big achievement for Rohit Sharma.
How many sixes has Rohit Sharma hit as a player in international cricket?
Talking about Rohit Sharma’s career, he has played 59 matches in Test cricket and has hit a total of 84 sixes so far. In ODIs, he has played 262 matches and has hit 323 sixes. Talking about T20 International, Hitman has played 159 matches and has hit 205 sixes. However, these are his records as a player, not as a captain. Rohit Sharma has now retired from T20 International cricket, but he will be seen playing ODIs and Tests for the next few years and it is expected that he will also be the captain for a few years. In such a situation, there is a possibility of his sixes increasing even more. It remains to be seen how far he goes and whether any other captain is able to break his record or Rohit Sharma will remain on the number one position.
