Mumbai Indians opener Rohit Sharma, known for his explosive batting, has achieved a remarkable feat! During a recent match against Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB), Sharma hit a massive six that marked his 100th six at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai, specifically in T20 matches.
This achievement highlights Sharma’s incredible power-hitting ability, especially at his home ground. He’s been a dominant force at Wankhede, consistently clearing the boundaries with his big shots.
But this isn’t Sharma’s only six-hitting record. He’s already the leading six-hitter in international cricket, having smashed a whopping 597 sixes so far! That means he hits the ball out of the stadium more often than any other cricketer in international matches.
In the IPL match against RCB, Sharma wasn’t just focused on his personal milestone. He started strong, hitting three sixes in his innings and reaching 38 runs off just 24 balls. Unfortunately, he was dismissed before finishing the job, but his early six-hitting helped Mumbai Indians put up a competitive fight.
Overall, Sharma’s achievement is a testament to his consistent power-hitting and dominance as a batsman. He’s not far away from another milestone – becoming only the fifth cricketer ever to hit 500 sixes in T20 cricket! Cricket fans will be eagerly waiting to see him reach that landmark soon.
In cricket, especially the fast-paced T20 format, runs come thick and fast. So, bowlers who can restrict the flow of runs are like gold. But how do we measure how well a bowler does this? Here's where economy rate comes in. Economy rate tells you how many runs a bowler concedes on average per over. The lower the number, the better!
