Stand-by Skipper Rohit Sharma now stands between the two states of achievement when India takes New Zealand in the Fourth One Day International of the series in Hamilton on Thursday. The visitors have already made a healthy 3-0 lead in the five-match series, and it looks forward to continuing their victory in the same manner for remaining two ODI matches.
Rohit Sharma now will be acting as stand-by skipper for the remaining two ODI matches since the regular skipper Virat Kohli rested for the rest of the tour. Rohit expects to continue India’s excellent performance in New Zealand. Apart from team triumph, Rohit Sharma is looking at a couple of individual achievements in his 200th match in the 50 over the arrangement of the game.
Until now, Rohit Sharma has smashed 215 sixes in One Day International Matches for India. He joined with wicked-keeper-batsman at the peak of the spot. Both the batsmen will get the opportunity to advance of the other in the fourth ODI, but one would feel it is Rohit who has the better chance to do as such considering he opens the innings for the ‘Men dressed in Blue’.
The following Indian players have hit most 6s in ODIs

Rohit is also aiming to become the first Indian captain to ever score a century in New Zealand. Currently, the record for the highest score by an Indian captain in the country is held by MS Dhoni, who made 85 against Zimbabwe in Auckland back in 2015. Given that Rohit averages 102.8 when captaining the side, he is in a prime position to break this record. In the eight ODIs where he has led the team, he has already notched two fifties and two centuries, including a massive 208* against Sri Lanka in Mohali (2017), 111* against Pakistan in Dubai (2018), 83* against Bangladesh in Dubai (2018), and 53 against Pakistan in Dubai (2018).
In-frame Rohit is more than fit to blowing this detail to bits as his normal bounces to 102.8 at whatever point he is captaining the side. In the 8 ODIs in which Rohit has driven the group, he has two fifties and two tons including a twofold hundred.
208* versus SL at Mohali,2017
111* versus PAK at Dubai, 2018
83* versus BDESH at Dubai, 2018
53 versus PAK at Dubai, 2018
Furthermore, Rohit has been in sensational form throughout this series, ranking as the second-highest run-scorer with 160 runs across three matches. After posting scores of 87 and 62 in his last two outings at Mount Maunganui, it feels like only a matter of time before the 'Hitman' reaches a century.
