Rohit Sharma is gazing at an unbelievable global record and is about to beat Shahid Afridi on a special batting list.
With his outstanding performance at the top, the 35-year-old set the stage for a large total, and Dinesh Karthik’s late blitz helped India reach 190-6. West Indies were then held to only 122-8 in 20 overs by the bowling team. India will be hoping for an encore from Rohit as they aim to take a 2-0 lead in the five-game series. He is also admiring a significant batting achievement in cricket.
With only four more sixes, Rohit, who is renowned for his graceful style of play as an opener, would overtake Shahid Afridi as the player with the most sixes in international cricket. With 553 sixes, Chris Gayle tops the chart. Afridi (476) and Rohit (473*) are in second and third place, respectively.

In the second game in Basseterre, Rohit’s Indian team will try to increase their lead against the Caribbean team. On the other hand, logistical difficulties have caused a delay in the T20. The game, which was originally slated to begin on Monday at 8 PM IST, will now commence at 10 PM IST, West Indies Cricket told the crowd. The last two games of the T20 series will be played at Lauderhill, Florida, while the third game will be played at the same location on Tuesday.
Rohit had discussed India’s objectives for this year’s T20 World Cup before the commencement of the 20-over challenge in the West Indies. Speaking of our men, everyone seems to be prepared to travel. We’ll strive to resolve some issues and accomplish certain goals. Our objective in each of the series we play has always been to accomplish something, said Rohit.
Rohit would overtake Virat Kohli’s record of wins in the format if India is successful in winning the current series by a score of 5-0. While the current captain of India has earned 27 victories so far, Kohli has 30 victories to his credit.
