The veteran Indian batter made his debut in the ODI format in 2007 against Ireland. Since then he has bagged a number of individual accolades. He is the only batter to hit three double tons in the format, the highest individual score (264) in ODI history and the most number of sixes by an India batter in ODIs (285). Rohit holds the record for the third-highest sixes struck in the ODI, after Shahid Afridi (351) and Chris Gayle (331). Rohit won the toss and elected to bat in the match against Sri Lanka. India got to a flying start once again with the skipper leading the charge with the bat. His knock came to an end in the 16th over with Dunith Wellalage breaching his defence with a ball that pitched short and stayed low.
