    Men's ODI WC: Rohit Sharma Sets Record For Hitting Most Sixes In World Cups

    By IANS News November 15, 2023 • 15:18 PM View: 929
    Cricket World Cup: India captain Rohit Sharma on Wednesday became the batter to hit most number of sixes in World Cups, blasting his 50th maximum in the semifinal match against New Zealand in the ICC Men's Cricket World Cup 2023 at the Wankhede Stadium here.

    Rohit hammered four sixes in his 29-ball 47. He started by lofting Trent Boult over the extra-cover boundary for his first six of the day in the third over and then struck Tim Southee for a six in the fourth over, flicking a ball landing on good length.

    In the course of his blazing knock, the India captain went past the record for most sixes in World Cups held by West Indies legend Chris Gayle. He was out for 47 after raising 71 runs in the opening wicket partnership with Shubman Gill in 50 balls.
