NEW DELHI: Rohit Sharma, the Indian cricket team's star opener, made headlines on Wednesday as he became the first batter to hit 50-plus sixes in the World Cup. This remarkable feat saw him surpass the previous record held by West Indies legend Chris Gayle, who had hit 49 sixes in the prestigious tournament.
Not only did 'Hitman' Rohit break the overall record, but he also became the batter with the most sixes in a single World Cup edition. This achievement once again saw him surpass Chris Gayle, who had hit 26 maximums in the 2015 World Cup.
