Rohit Sharma has always been considered a big match player. He has proved this many times. Before the T20 World Cup, there were concerns about his form. Even during the tournament, cricket experts were concerned about his inability to score runs consistently. However, as soon as the Super-8 matches came, Rohit came back in his true form.

He first played a blistering innings of 92 runs in 41 balls against Australia in the Super-8. After this, he again scored a half-century against England on the difficult pitch of Guyana in the semi-finals. This put Team India in a strong position and defeated England to enter the finals. In this important match, Rohit Sharma set a series of records.

The only batsman to do so

Rohit Sharma played an important innings of 57 runs in 39 balls in the semi-finals. He also hit 6 fours and 2 sixes in this innings. With this, he has become the first Indian batsman to hit 50 sixes in the T20 World Cup.

After him, Virat Kohli and Yuvraj Singh have hit the most sixes (33). Not only this, he did another big feat in this match. Rohit has already hit 50 sixes in the ODI World Cup and World Test Championship and now he has completed 50 sixes in the T20 World Cup. He has become the only batsman to do so in these three tournaments.

Rohit Sharma made another record with his brilliant innings. He is the first Indian captain to score a half-century in a T20 World Cup knockout match. With this innings, he has reached the second position in terms of scoring the most runs (771) in ICC knockouts.

Now only Virat Kohli is ahead of him, who has scored 863 runs.

Equaled Lara-Ganguly

Team India has entered the finals by defeating England by 68 runs in the semi-finals. Rohit Sharma has taken the Indian team to the finals of an ICC tournament for the third time under his captaincy. With this feat, he has equaled India's legendary captain Sourav Ganguly and former West Indies captain Brian Lara. Only Ricky Ponting and Mahendra Singh Dhoni are ahead of Rohit Sharma in this matter. Both of them have taken the team to the finals of ICC tournaments 4 times each under their captaincy.
