When it comes to the list of the greatest of all time in ODIs, Rohit Sharma, a three-time double centurion in this format, gets a place without any doubt. The 39-year-old, whose place in India’s World Cup 2027 squad is still in doubt, will be in action once again when the West Indies tour of India begins on Sunday (September 27).
Rohit will be back in action for the Men in Blue in Thiruvananthapuram when the first ODI between the West Indies and India gets underway at 2 PM IST. He will also be in Guwahati and Mullanpur for the second and third ODIs on September 30 and October 3, respectively.
Let’s take a look at which potential Rohit Sharma records could make the headlines during India vs West Indies ODIs.
10000 Runs As ODI Opener- Rohit Sharma Is 135 Runs Away
Of his 11895 ODI runs so far, Rohit has scored 9865 as an opener for India. All he needs to do is get 135 more runs to join the exclusive 10000-run club among ODI openers.
He will become the fourth overall to do so if he reaches it during India vs West Indies ODIs. From India’s perspective, only Sachin Tendulkar has reached this milestone before him. The others are Chris Gayle and Sanath Jayasuriya.
