Rohit Sharma becomes top six-hitter in ODIs

Rohit Sharma is a cricket player who has hit the most sixes in one-day international (ODI) matches.

He recently broke the record held by Shahid Afridi from Pakistan.

Rohit hit his 352nd six in a game against South Africa.

He took 269 innings to reach this milestone, which is faster than Afridi's 369 innings.

At the start of his career, Rohit wasn't known for hitting many sixes.

He hit his first six in 2007 and only had five sixes in his first 40 innings.

Things changed in 2013 when he started batting first (opening the innings).

After that, he hit many more sixes.

As the captain of the team since 2022, he has been hitting sixes even more often.

Now, he hits a six almost every 18 balls, which is much better than his earlier rate.
