Rohit Sharma, who is known as a hitman of India, is on his way to reach another milestone. He is going to be the first Indian to reach 400 sixes across the world once he gets there. He will be the third batsman Chris Gayle with 534 and Shahid Afridi with 476 to reach that landmark.

Rohit Sharma is a dedicated batsman in team India at the top of the order in limited-overs cricket. While his Test career did not hit the same heights for a long time, the Indian team’s decision to let him open the batting seems to have done the trick.

In his first series as India’s Test opener against South Africa in October, he had the record for most sixes hit during a Test series by hitting 19 maximums. He scored a whopping 529 runs in four innings which included a maiden Test double ton.

He will be next seen when India take on the West Indies in a limited-overs series starting in Hyderabad on December 6. The two sides first play a three-match T20I series and that will be followed by three-match ODI series.
