Rohit Sharma to Join Elite 500-Match Club in Australia ODIs
For the upcoming ODIs in Australia, Rohit Sharma returns to the Indian side, though not as captain. With the spotlight firmly on his batting, the Hitman stands on the verge of several major milestones. He needs just 8 more sixes to hold the record for the most sixes in ODIs (currently at 344), one more century to complete 50 international hundreds, and only 10 runs to become the first Indian batsman to score 1,000 ODI runs against Australia in Australia.
Rohit Sharma is also at the verge of joining an exclusive club of players who have played 500 international matches. Currently he has played in 499 international matches, equal to Inzamam-ul-Haq (Asia/ICC/Pakistan) who ended his career at 499 international matches.
